       | I would coin this "the cost of non-free". Many SaaS contracts are
       | open to bait and switch by exploiting vendor lock-in. Just as
       | gitlab did when they removed a pricing tier a while back.

       | It's questionable that they are moving this up a tier, but this
       | feature really does seem like it makes the most sense as a
       | compliance feature and all compliance features are 'Ultimate'
       | already. Any other usage seems like it could be replaced by
       | adding an 'include' directive to the relevant jobs.
