I agree with your logic and that's the way that I look at it myself. The real issue causing these conversations, I feel, is that Adobe mislead people into thinking that they would be able to upgrade to CS7 if they bought CS6 because Adobe was no longer going to allow upgrades from 2 versions back. All of a sudden, they sprung the cloud thing on us and people understandingly balked. Some of those people who really resented Adobe's actions started spreading fear and misinformation, which still lingers, in hopes of overturning the inevitable. While I am a member of the cloud, make no mistake, I don't like it but it is what it is and you go with it or not.

It is far more productive to spend our energies discussing alternatives, exit strategies just in case and using the cloud.
