Of course it's a trap.
So was Windows, Iphone, Oracle DB, etc. etc. It always starts off as the "easy button" and it takes a while to figure out you're trapped. "Just get Windows 95" ... "Iphone just works" ... "Don't worry, it's SQL, we can port it to another vendor anytime". Eventually people wise up and a low cost alternative undercuts whatever happens to be the "evil empire" of the day.
Just make sure you can secure and recover your precious data and code when disaster strikes. Pray that the "company jewels" are being traded on some East European dark net.
