I really don't like what Matt is doing. Many developers are considering leaving the community.

Masterclass in foot shooting on display, really.

yep. Even if WP Engine disintegrated into dust tomorrow, Mullenweg would still be the guy that fucked with the open source alleged charity that everyone relied on for a business grudge. Undoing that requires getting rid of the dependency on wordpress.org or getting rid of Matt.
