I don't think the kind of people that are overly worried about not using up their free trial generally make good paying customers.

Here was my experience: my team signed up, started using it, tried out all the different features (none of which were behind a paywall), didn't hit the 1000 block limit, and started paying within a week of signing up because it was exactly what we were looking for at the time.

I was one of the people that saw the free 1000 blocks and chose not to signup, because I didn't understand what that gets me.

I am currently happy on the free-tier and would cheer-lead internally at my job if there was interest to migrating to Notion.

I was one of the people that saw the 1000 block limit and just signed up to avoid the hassle of even thinking about it.

I wonder how the total numbers of people that did each of these things compare.
