This kind of drama is why I am often happy to pay for my tools and services.
Unity had a bit of a mess too, but it's a different kind of mess for me. One that doesn't make me worry so much about the engine health or roadmap. That one was mostly just capitalists being capitalists. A devil you can quantify and put to rest in one afternoon.
0% of $0 is still $0. From a risk management perspective, I'd much rather experience some incremental margin impact than worry about a community black swan event that rips the engine dev team apart and leaves me with a pile of ash to play with.

Economic pressures just add on to it as well, and if they go belly up, you don't even have the source code for any potential fork to rise up from.
