It'll be similar as to what happened with My Deer friend anime, there will be two different versions of subs not one as whenever they try to fuck with the subs, and enterprising guy than understands both Japanese and English will come in to sub to gain popularity.
Them fucking with subs gains pirate sites MORE popularity.
I went to get alternative subs because Railgun's official subs translated Onee-sama as "sissy" and haven't come back since. Whenever a HorribleSubs reminds me of the original hackjobs, I tune out entirely from the series. No merch purchases, no manga or LN sales.
Piracy literally increases the revenues for these companies. I would buy licensed figmas of Onee-sama, I would not buy them of Sissy. Ranma is risking sales by giving it to this... entity.
