Don't forget that managers think the same thing -- if it's free then it is somehow an inferior product but if you pay for something then that automatically makes it better. This applies forward as well... the more they pay for something, the "better" it must be.
For example... Cybertruck.
From my perspective, open-source products are greatly superior because you have the entire community of users and engineers working on a known issue, rather than a few paid engineers who may not even use the product. Even more importantly, the community will solve problems that a corporation has decided aren't worth the effort or are "obsolete".
