  But with IntelliJ you get downgraded to the version it had when you bought the license I think. https://sales.jetbrains.com/hc/en-gb/articles/207240845-What-is-perpetual-fallback-license- https://sales.jetbrains.com/hc/en-gb/articles/207240845-What... "When purchasing an annual subscription, you will immediately get a perpetual fallback license for the exact version available at the time (of the purchase)." Parenthesis mine.

    I believe the flow is You buy version A (for full price) They upgrade you to version B (hoping you will pay the reduced price) When version C come out if you haven't paid yet you get reverted to version A
