Good, for two reasons.
1) Boeing offer no aircraft that small, so they weren't going to be financially harmed by it.
2) Boeing whines about illegal subsidies other aircraft manufacturers get, but they get the same in special low tax rates, (the different method of subsidy is just semantics) so they can hardly complain anyway.
