To put it into perspective, there are several good reasons why one wouldn’t.
First and foremost, I’m not going to make the same mistake again, which is spending time and brain cells on learning to use a thing that one day, someone is going to take away from me on a whim.
Not to speak of what’s going to happen to all my files when that day comes.
It may be ok for low-entry-barrier things, such as an email client.
But there’s absolutely no way I’m going to lock myself into a non-free creative tool ever again.
