Wow, this is a big deal. Matt Mullenweg taking over ACF like that? Not cool. It's not just about messing with years of hard work, but think about all those WordPress sites now running code the ACF team didn't approve. Kinda scary when you think about it. Hope this doesn't become a trend in the open-source world.

And this is different from WP Engine modifying Wordpress exactly how?

Well, we can start with the fact that WP Engine hasn’t taken over any domain previously owned by Wordpress
