I would guess it's more that the founders want to exit before AI replaces them. (Based on the doom-and-gloom narrative in tech right now...)

I think you're missing the point of wearing an analog watch, which is fine, but still missing the point nonetheless. :)
As an avid watch wearer, all analog, I built the game so I could improve my skills, because under pressure when somebody asks "what time is it?", I want to be able to tell them exactly, because I should be able to read it! I think it's good to want to improve your skills, whatever that may be. You shouldn't bar people from that because you disagree.
Build a good product and they will come.
Very interesting to see them deprecating Blueprints. The proliferation of Blueprints is actually why I chose Unity DOTS over Unreal. I wanted to code (especially with LLMs), and from who I talked to, the industry seemed to use Blueprints more than code for gameplay scripting, which didn't appeal to me at all.
I've seen the same behavior increasing as well, across the board with AI. I was hitting these types of issues just using ChatGPT to make funny pictures with my kids, of me and my kids. It got to the point where all of my kids asks were rejected due to its "guidelines" when in reality all they were asking was to be turned into Elsa or be chased by a trex. Silly kid things, yet it assumed I was being a creep, or attempting to break copyright law. I used to be able to use Grok for these things, as it was largely less "censored" but that seems to no longer be the case. It feels like infantilization, and I absolutely hate it.
