I hope that one positive outcome of this whole debacle will be people realising that the Wordpress Foundation board is apparently three Matt Mullenwegs in a trenchcoat: https://www.pluginvulnerabilities.com/2024/09/24/who-is-on-t... (I exaggerate, slightly.)
This is clearly not what an independent foundation with the interests of the open source project in mind looks like.
If this mess creates pressure to put more separation between the Foundation and Automattic, I think that can only be a good thing.
