Yeah, that's what I'm getting at, proprietary software on Linux is just a step forward towards a fully FOSS future
For the most part, there aren't many professional fields that have a good FOSS option, so in the meantime their only option is to keep using the industry standard until a good alternative matures like Blender has
At the very least, people would have the freedom to not use microsoft or apple while still working professionally in their respective industry, so that's more free overall
