I don't really understand this change. What's the reason for doing this? The reason stated in the article isn't really clear. Can you address it?

No this idea didn't come from the community, I don't believe this. "Confusion" happens in the comments when you remove the badge. Account verification shouldn't require Youtube's approval / endorsement. We want impartiality; we don't want the platform endorsing ANYONE at all.

A handful of people may have pretended to express “confusion” about why Youtube would allow someone they don’t agree with to be “verified”. So now verification means endorsement, but it never did before. Cancel culture is dictating changes at Youtube, AGAIN.
