Yeah I can't imagine why I would start a project with Unity at this point. That's just asking to get screwed over later with no warning.
It appears that Unity shot itself in both feet and also its face. It's been a long time since I've seen such a spectacular betrayal of trust by a business where confidence in your product is paramount. Even with extreme backpedling, it's in the can.
Wizard of the Coast license fiasco is about the same. Except of course that "confidence in your product" is a bit of a misnomer. It's not a confidence in the D&D, but the license. A lot of people were trusting the OGL, and the changes would have fucked over half of the industry with their "retroactive" changes.
