The question is, will you choose FOSS even if it is a poorer choice?
If I need to do some short time job and there are no FOSS tools I usually buy the license for proprietary software do the work and then uninstall it. Since I can't even see if there are some obvious security vulnerabilities so why risk having it installed.
About the "poorer choice", by using not sufficiently featurefull FOSS tools you get the chance to improve those and everyone benefits.
