Even after this walk back, the whole situation still sucks for everybody but Unity. Even the part about removing the "requirement to use the Made with Unity splash screen" bit seems like blatant self-preservation more than capitulation. They've got to be aware that there are probably consumers out there willing to boycott any game with that splash screen, leading to lower install numbers. I'm not in game dev, so I'm just talking out of my ass, but it doesn't seem like studios are really bothered by including those pre-roll splash screens all that much.
