> I would jump on an optimised version of Illustrator with the feature set from 10 (or more) years ago.

Genuine question, can't you just install an old version of Illustrator?

Not anymore! Adobe has been taking the activation servers offline for its older products for some time now. Newer versions as I understand it are the service model "Creative Cloud" meanwhile

You can, just not an official version :/

So... it was basically a subscription all along.

Other issue is version compatability if you're working on a team
