This is an awful move by TDF. The wording ("The Personal edition is supported by volunteers and intended for individual use") is egregious: People who use LibreOffice on their work laptops because they don't want to use Word may find higher-ups scared by that that wording prohibiting that practice. If the point of contention is that companies that can afford it shouldn't use free community support, there are much better ways to put that. However, TDF says this is a part of their "marketing plan" for the next 5 years[1], so I don't see that changing.
