Honestly this move makes zero sense to me.
Apasia is very new in the Bitshares community, they're not an active committee member nor an active witness, they're a for-profit company and the community wasn't involved in this move at all.
Given that bitshares.com was valued at $200k, was there an exchange of money for the transfer of the most important bitshares URL?
Nope. It was a simple gift of property belonging to Cryptonomex. It made great sense to us, which is all that is required.
"They are willing to do this at zero cost or personal gain" It's naive to state that there's no personal gain for apasia with this move - owning the primary bitshares domain is massively valuable, especially the web wallet revenue streams and potential for network disruption.
