I’ve seen firewall folks upselling security feeds as add-ons, but when it comes to paywalling critical exploitable vulnerabilies, that feels more like exploitation by deliberate omission if you ‘choose’ not to spend a nice vacation’s pay to get back on their support treadmill so bad guys don’t

There has been a lot of Cisco hate to go around, honestly over the years that is all I have seen with WISP's, "GOO Microtik, fuck cisco!!!". To answer your question the switch will work fine after that. Its likely the demo of the advanced services which would be more than simple vlans.
