It may be true that it may not actually happen. However:

  • I have elaborated on monetization in another long comment.
  • it cannot be wrong to have monetary interest in your product.
  • A law (which is the goal afaik) needs to account for unlikely scenarios, thats why its usually so hard to make new ones

I am not against leaving games playable, but the fact that people like the game means that the devs did a good job and their fate needs to be accounted for. Devs who make good games are not an enemy

it cannot be wrong to have monetary interest in your product

There is nothing wrong with making money off the games you make. But once you are done doing that, you shouldn't be allowed to just wipe the thing people paid you for.
