Probably the developers who didn't migrate away don't care about the fee at all and the one who left would probably think something along the lines of "I learned a new engine and who's to say they won't pull the same shit again".
Plus for most "this new engine is free forever and built by other developers like me". Why would anyone want to switch back after learning it?
Free forever, until it's not
Nope, Godot is open source, the current version can never become paid. If someone decided to make the next versions paid the community would just fork it and keep working on the free version. It's happened with some other projects in the past.
