They're already proving not to be good stewards, as Affinity now got compressed into one app, AFAIK it's still lacking 100% feature parity with the original ones, and it being free is just a vehicle to make you sign up for an account, and to continuously show you upsells for the cloud subscription, right there in the UI, with the growing amount of "pro" features only available on paid subscription tiers.
