Expensive?!?
It is a bargain compared with what I used to pay for programming tools during the 90's.
In other professions people care to buy their tools.

JetBrains' tools have to be rented.
That's not correct. JetBrains subscriptions come with a perpetual fallback license for the version available when you purchased the subscription. This is basically the same as the previous model where you would buy a license for a specific version with free upgrades for some period of time afterwards. Most people would continuously buy the upgrade license they wanted to stay on the latest version.
