I have mixed feelings on this, it did feel like there was a broader choice of compilers back then but on the other side not being able to afford them in my youth was frustrating.

I was just thinking about how I spent hundreds of dollars for Zortech C++ and Borland C++ back in the 90s and was shocked when IBM included a C/C++ compiler for FREE with OS/2 and it even included a visual UI builder tool.
