There must be some sort of miscommunication here. My (SaaS) subscription system is vanilla Stripe without abstraction. My (single-purchase, tshirt) system was an abstraction across Stripe and PayPal.

I can only imagine the elevated pain of abstracting across multiple subscription systems. Ouch.

My bad must have been a miscommunication here. I was about to expand on those key differences between payment gateways vs Merchant of Records. http://bit.ly/2Us1OWM - Could still be an interesting read as it explores those key elements of what you have to juggle.
