> Kinda worried SD will regress into something that will need dedicated tweaked models for everything.

honestly I'd far prefer them not have any legal issues and deliver solid bases for fine tunes. (the initial training is the really expensive bit)

The community surrounding SD is a resourceful bunch and being able to train forward from a high quality (but censored) base is better than from a low quality (but uncensored) base.

Just look at all the work that's being done with LLMs where a curated dataset gives better results than a large uncurated one.
