Fingers crossed it destroys the SaaS rent extraction model and we’ll go back to purchasing software.

That made sense in times where you packaged software and sold it in a store, once. Now people barely run local-only software any more, most people live in Google Chrome and only use permanently online software.

SaaS is the perfect model for software that's permanently being worked on.

Yes, because they were conditioned to do so by rent seeking companies.
