No need. Just read the forums from 1999 to 2019. Oh, and remember that they attempted to license the trademark 'Amiga Forever' just last year.
Delusions are things that have no basis in fact or that disappear when looked at with available evidence. Hyperion being hyper-aggressive litigious shitwads who'll screw over anything or anyone they touch is not among those things. They just get worse the more you know about them.
There's a good chance that Jens, A-Eon, Vampire etc etc want nothing to do with Cloanto now and won't license the IP, and retro will dissolve into "everyone blame Cloanto" infighting. Even then, it would still be better than having Hyperion swanning around with 3.x like they owned it.
Look at the trouble they've caused already - nobody knows who owns what and companies who thought they were getting the real thing from the legal owners were driven out of business.
