I mean it worked out for Astral who made open python tooling and got acquired by openai¹ maybe it's a new legit strategy now

But uv is a (very-) nice-to-have tool, not the foundation.

Also, uv is open source, and can be forked if the company behind it decides to close it (see Terraform → OpenTofu, etc).
