For sure, but the membership fees these companies pay are really quite small (bottom of this page https://www.eclipse.org/membership/prospectus/ https://www.eclipse.org/membership/prospectus/), and they mainly go towards infrastructure, running the working groups, and conferences. The projects get some benefits, but they don't get a lot of full time developers (in fact, I'd be surprised if they get even a fraction of 1 FTE), and are largely run either by volunteers or by people doing this in their 20% time in regular day jobs.
In any case, Cursor didn't pay any money here, so they get to keep all the pieces when the code they used for free breaks.
