I’m not sure why you think this is their fault, or why you think the enterprisey-ness of a feature determines whether it should be behind a paywall. Clearly it was valuable enough for you to want it. People should pay for value. Especially if they want companies to stick around for the long haul to support the technology.
I think you missed the point. What I was making a point about was first the tin-eared nature of the salesdroid (i.e. "cloud cloud cloud cloud" despite me explaining why not). Second about the price point of on-prem. Of course I will "pay for value" but there is a difference between paying and paying through the nose.
Basically it gave the impression that Dgraph was so up itself that it thought it could dictate how their customers should run their IT and thought it was special enough to be able to ask silly money prices.
