What I gather about the author's thoughts about that, he isn't a fan of copyright in general, and uses UNLICENSE as an ideological statement, plus a practical way of saying "do whatever you want with this", but also slaps the option to use MIT as "something almost as good" because non-standard licenses deter corporate types, which kind of defeats the original "do whatever you want" purpose of UNLICENSE :D
