As has already been stated on this same page, there's a community edition and a commercial edition. They're likely part of the same packaging pipeline.

Do not be condescending on Hacker News when someone is responding to your question. It's easy to jump to conclusions. It's a bit more to actually try and understand what happened - that is the point of Hanlon's Razor. This may have been intentional, yes. But it may also have been a bug.

Do not dispense unsolicited advice on the Internets. That wasn't a reply. It was a highbrow remark that was as generic as it was barely applicable. A proper reply was the sibling comment that pointed at two editions.

The context was implied and definitely applicable. This is now becoming pedantic so let's invoke Godwin's law and stop valuable electrons being pushed around for no reason.

The nazis did it.

Everyone happy now? :)
