There's a lot less incentive for Microsoft to muck about with the license and in that sense it's not really about trust.

Or maybe they saw redis had some shortcomings when trying to use in their cloud offering. The thing is that once it will get popular enough that other cloud providers might add it to their offering, the license likely might also change.
