As far as I have been able to tell, it doesn't. If you have your own infra it doesn't affect you at all.

Even self hosting, thenplug ins directory and updates etc seem to be where they have stopped wp engine access. It is still open for other websites but could be cut off if they chose.

From what ive read, manual upload of a plugin still works, so its just removing convenience and auto update. I doubt its long before a fork or plug in offers identicsl functionality.

This is also about WP Engine access to upload their plugins and support their users on the centralized forums,...

Yes, I expect there eventually will be more than one forum and/or plugin repository, depending on where you use WordPress. Its not really WordPress providing the support, more the community, but they host it.
