I'm curious as to why. Granted I don't even think I own a game by Stardock that I'm aware of, but always down for buying more ethically if they've done something heinous

Mostly for the fun of having a grudge at this point, haha. A long time ago when I was a kid they made a name for themselves with the "Gamers Bill of Rights". It earned them a bunch of goodwill, and then they immediately released a game in a completely broken state missing half the features they advertised. At which point they dropped their "gamers bill of rights" and refused to give refunds like it stated.

Not particularly heinous by todays standards though I guess.
