I wouldn’t say so - even if the built in file explorer works well, if someone built a really slick one with features I wanted, I would probably just use that. It’s like why many people might choose, for example, iTerm2 over Terminal.app, even though the latter is provided with the OS and works well enough for most purposes.

Well, at the very least, it shows the risks of using non-FOSS apps, and why FOSS versions might be preferable even if they're not as polished.

iTerm2 is GPLv2, though: this situation the opposite of the one presented above.
