Unity is introducing a new per-install fee. According to my calculations (see chart) it's a bankruptcy death-trap?

Shockingly, the owed percentage is unbounded and can exceed gross revenue, since the owed amount depends on installs, not sales.
For games that are in bundles, subscription services, are free-to-play, or just highly pirated, the install count can be very high while the revenue per install is very low, which is where this fee structure is super dangerous.
@runevision They said that bundles would not apply, but then also said this… so it’s any one’s guess… https://twitter.com/unity/status/1701689241456021607
@slembcke Yeah. I forgot if it was all bundles or only charity bundles (where developers see no revenue)? Either way, they have no way of tracking which activations come from bundles or not.
