Agreed with others that this is a fallacy. Companies do raise prices. Being able to move between them without rewriting everything is a huge benefit. We've seen this with cloud, we've seen this with every large platform. Oracle's entire business is making it painful to migrate off them and then jacking up prices. Microsoft, AWS, and everyone else have tried to do the same thing.
The talk about models is also bullshit. Some people I work with have taken to asking what model people used and refusing to even review content from ones they consider lesser. This is absolute insanity.
