To answer your question, no. Hashicorp switching to a BSL isn't any more disruptive than if they went out of business. My personal concern is that it's much easier for a company to change its licensing than it is for that company to go out of business, and it seems more formerly open companies are choosing to do so. That's the focus of the article as well.
