It doesn't matter what people thought. The complaints were coming from people at big companies with legal departments. The lawyers' job is to make sure there are no legal vulnerabilities, the same way it's your job to make sure your code doesn't contain any vulnerabilities. Intent is irrelevant.

Exactly. Looks like Google was among the companies with legal complaints: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9271331. I wonder if the new version of the grant was enough to get them to reconsider? It'd be really interesting to see more of Google in the React community.
