UnityEngine will surely never be a standalone thing (just mentioned again on the board that they are not going to license parts of Unity). Wouldn't make much sense as 2 of unities strength are singleclick Webdeployment and singleclick iPhone deployment in the forseable future.
agree with you sinu on the less limits but lets face the fact: limits are often needed to make you really creative and productive. If you can do everything you tend to lose focus and try to do anything and everything. And in BM you will have to do a lot of everything before you have something. Or buy sswifts entity system + GA framework at which point you are nearly at the price of unity ... and I'm not sure how much simpler BM is than javascript or C# when it comes to program game logic.
And at least Unity3D is capable of running on european windows correctly unlike BM
