It's actually not that pricey for what you get from it. The problem is that they have a tendency to be closed mouthed about their plans.
I bought a 2.5 GBE router, to replace my elderly and difficult USG, and was about to buy a 2.5 GBE WAP - there was a problem with them having issues with only one chipset inside the first version, so I didn't pull the trigger immediately. Within a month there was a 10 GBE WAP being sold. A 10 GBE Router appear soon after. Damn.
The only viable alternative, IMHO, is pfsense (mostly US users) and opensense (not US users) and you need your own hardware.
I run my Gateway without a UI login, a local account. I lose some of the features, but that's ok with me.
