I thought they let you use the version you used when you started subscribing, not then you ended the subscription? This was something a lot of people were upset about. That if you subscribe for a year and stop, you end up with a year old version.
You get the version at the time of your subscription (plus bugfixes). Then every time a version has been out for 12 months while you’ve been paying you get that version perpetually (plus bugfixes).
So it’s 1.0 when you subscribe, you get that perpetually.
It’s 1.0.1 in your third month, you get that perpetually.
It’s 1.1 in your fifth month. You get that perpetually after 17 months.
It’s 1.2 in your eighth month. You get that perpetually after 20 months.
You unsubscibe at 19 months but retain a perpetual version licence.
You started with 1.0
You ended with 1.2
You have to roll back from 1.2 to 1.1
Previous version was incorrect. This is why I just distribute our licenses, not procure them!
