I think this is true in some cases, but there are others where an engineering org is proposing building an internal solution on an open source stack vs fewer dedicated internal resources with a proprietary solution and the argument becomes one of using internal resources to do something which is maybe a little outside of "core competency" areas vs a proprietary solution that may claim to do everything needed with a risk of limiting options either technically or financially in the future. There I've seen a pattern of short term financial cost overriding future risk, but maybe that shifts a little due to pandemic outcomes.
