I think this is disingenuous because only a month ago Kyle from AgileBits was saying that you are considering getting rid of the standalone option, if customers vote with their wallet and I quote:

> "we don't have any immediate plans to remove the standalone products. However, if a vast majority of our users switch to 1Password Family or 1Password Teams (and as of today, an Individual plan!) then it doesn't make a ton of sense to keep the standalone product around. So, it's probably one of those speak with your wallet kind of scenarios."

You also got rid of the Mac-only licensing option after introducing 1Password for Families. Unless I don't remember correctly, it was about $20 cheaper than the option that also gives you that old and unmaintained Windows client.

I mean, if it's a contest between the standalone version and subscriptions, it sure looks like the game isn't fair.
