We have heard you. We apologize for the confusion and angst the runtime fee policy we announced on Tuesday caused. We are listening, talking to our team members, community, customers, and partners, and will be making changes to the policy. We will share an update in a couple of days. Thank you for your honest and critical feedback.

"Angst". Quite a choice of words.

Isn’t it? Like the entire industry is composed of teenagers without enough life experience to see the big picture.

But then, did anyone expect Unity not to be tone deaf?

That was my first impression. I suppose it could be an honest mistake (especially since they apparently fired all the PR people a while back, too, heh) but it doesn't look great.
