An ultimatum to delete all content within 2 weeks, after they've not said a thing for 8 years, linked the site from their official blog, ... seems quite heavy-handed. Yes, they might have the right to do so, but it is shitty and not the only option.

I'm sure they can get in contact and discuss something more reasonable. I doubt RPi's stance is unwavering
Asking to transfer the domain with such short notice does feel heavy-handed for sure. But they haven't asked to delete the blog - only to remove offending references.
Removing all references to Raspberry Pi from a blog dedicated to discussing the Raspberry Pi is effectively the same as asking to delete it. What would they be left with?
> remove all content relating to our Raspberry Pi brand

How much of a Raspberry Pi blog is going to be unrelated to the "Raspberry Pi brand"?
