Not very reassuring in the context of the xz backdoor and sketchiness of this particular author. I think it's better to avoid it, regardless of whether the author is actually malicious. Giving the vibe of being somehow official and having this fake "company" is rightly criticized. That's not the behavior of the developer whose code I would want to run.

Given the sketchiness I'd say it's much more likely than with average dev.
