If that would be the case, I wouldn't have expected them to change it back. I don't think it was that bad of an impact for them, they are already big enough in non-hardcore-open-source communities that they could pull it off and afford to lose some customers to go propietary. I'm actually really positively surprised by them that they actually picked up on this issue raised by the community and that they fixed it very promptly.

Yes the trust was seriously damaged, but this move does restore it largely for me.
