despite best efforts .NET is still not an open platform

problem: ramming in a proprietary extension to continue to lockdown .NET.

Everyone I admire in DevDiv opposes these terrible ideas, including Tim.

problem: leadership decision to remove hotreload angers community and devdiv employees

director of .net at unity games:

Just a week before we were going to have a meeting with .NET teams to talk about Unity's future with .NET...
That's not a good signal sent for rebooting our partnership...
Please @Julie_LGreen and @matvelloso, reconsider this last minute revert for .NET 6 🙏 https://t.co/R6EaGpaVKR
