I think The Verge's angle is pretty good: it's going to be hard to restore trust, and many developers were surprised at how easy a shift of frameworks is looking for future releases. I'm following a number of indie game devs who got their next release ported away from Unity within a week, including Brian Bucklew of the classic Caves of Qud team

Since then they really had provided little reason to continue with Unity other than tradition, and other engines made it easier to engage with or over time simply improved enough to meet the standard that Unity provided. Even before this pricing change you kept hearing the questioning of Unity and their 'edge' was quickly becoming paper thin.
