Siemens seems like it does not know what it had acquired or who they are speaking to. Basically a bunch of PR gobbledygook that answered very little.

My thoughts exactly. They literally didn’t even mention Hackaday or Tindie. Doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence as a Tindie seller.

That's Marketing Speak. They know exactly what they bought and why. Whether that adds to the bottom line remains to be decided. Big Corps go through mergers and de-mergers at one or more board's whim with some monotony.
We need to decide what that means to "us" for a given value of "us".
From my first skim read, it looks like some "with benefits" things will be lost by interested parties. The questions answered by "Siemens did not respond to this question."
