Sounds like you're cherry picking both; I've seen plenty of garbage that costs money as well.

Oh right, thanks
Am I misunderstanding something? Wouldn't that just be 7! = 5040 possibilities?
This happened to me in Kansas on the way to college a long time back. The cop pulled out and started tailgating me and I slowly got closer to the car in front of me and then he put his lights on and pulled me over for "following too closely".
He wanted to search my car and tried to call in a drug dog. Put me in his car and turned the AC to fill blast while I waited for a dog that never came.
Wish I had the courage to have asked if I was being arrested and then demand being let go otherwise
This is also far from my personal experience, you might not even realize what free software you're depending on?
Your browser is most likely the most complex piece of software you interact with daily and it is most likely FOSS. The Linux kernel is FOSS and is incredibly robust. Most compiler suites, FOSS. Most programming languages, FOSS. These are all incredibly well written and robust tools. AOSP, kinda FOSS, and the forks like Graphene are definitely FOSS. Hell even a lot of macOS programs are actually FOSS. I could go on and on, there is absolutely amazing work being done on FOSS by incredibly talented people.
There is great paid and proprietary software out there, sure, but no it's not the majority of top quality software in my personal experience and likely a lot of people's experiences and it is almost guaranteed to rely on a FOSS library somewhere
