9 years of everyone telling him that forcing the UNITY splash screen on "baby's first game" was a bad idea and was hurting the engine, because people were assuming all games made in the engine were bad, because good games didn't show they also used Unity. Now that he is gone this changes.

Also he is a huge fan of the "metaverse" idea: https://venturebeat.com/games/unity-ceo-john-riccitiello-the-metaverse-will-have-millions-of-destinations/ and I am sure some of Unity's money went there at a time they could not afford it and with nothing to show for it.
