Saying the move is because of 'business motive' looks like a opinion or judgement. Its strange to see such a thing from lwn. I feel sad about it. This is just my opinion, I may be wrong completely in saying so and I do not intend to hurt anyone or damage lwn's reputation in any way.

Actually I like LWN's style of calling a thing that looks, swims and quacks like a duck a "most likely" duck. It allows to talk about a very likely impression that reasonable, calm and experienced people like Jon may have gotten. Yes, he fully brings in his experience, so there is a part of "judgement" in the article, which is good, because all articles include some of it, even reports. And having it explicit is better than the alternatives.
