It is entirely possible that GW is just trying to have a back up trick up their sleeve IF the model business takes a hit.
Plus even if it does not, the fan backlash, I doubt will last long. If fans got over the BLM shittery, this won't stop them. They will have gathered more milkable avenues of money making, which is kind of what (((corporations))) like to do as a basic feature.
If they can up their revenue by 20% with the IP stuff, than donate 1000 pounds to some faggot charity to appease the reddit retards, all will be good for their bottom line.
