I don't understand, are you bemoaning that the company in question who owns benchy is ending things amicably?
They changed the license on benchy, which is the thing that they needed to do to end the whole fiasco. I saw plenty of discussion and the internet is really good at inflaming passions. I wouldn't classify what I saw as panic, but I think concern and confusion was rampant.
I'm glad they made the smart choice. It brought them a tiny bit of good PR for no cost to them.
Just poking fun at the people who were absolutely convinced that said company was evil (TM) and would never do the right thing.
sometimes you gotta push them a little bit into doing the right thing.
