I didn't mean to imply that...  But, it is also unfair to automatically
label free (as in no cost) proprietary software as "bad".

That depends on perspective. Fedora's perspective is to support Free and open source software exclusively. That doesn't require being judgmental about non-free software.

Neither offers guarantees but Free software offers more choice and
flexibility if a vendor decides to cut off support for a product.

And a good vendor won't do that.

Many vendors do drop support quickly (which makes sense since the focus is on volume) and some go out of business. Free software projects can route around such damage.
