A considerable portion of Mono's original developers & current maintainers are on Microsoft's payroll and have been since the acquisition of Xamarin years ago. Because large portions of .NET and C# stewardship moved over to the .NET foundation, community members have a formal role in the development of both as well.
So in practice, 'pulling the rug out from under' Mono (or .NET Core) users would be pulling the rug out from under paying customers.
