If they released an excellent product, and the market could absorb a second title, then another developer might try a competitive subsim. However if Ubisoft were releasing excellent product then there might not be such a need from the community itself.

However as it stands today, your first scenario is a pipedream :-) If only...

The reason Ubi is stifling the market is because they can keep releasing half-arsed SH games because they have immense development resources, economies of scale etc..They can hedge their games portfolio because they have so many titles.
