I appreciate the change to the navigation, it makes things a whole lot more clear!

Perhaps I could have worded that better. I don't see myself hitting that limit any time soon, but it represents some amount of lock-in (though, less than typical since the everything is mostly plain markdown). My reluctance to use paid software that gates features or may disappear entirely is due to the lock-in and vanishing of previous tools I've used. Not to say that is what is happening here, perhaps I'm predisposed to side-eyeing non-open-source tooling since it is such a core part of my work. At least with an open core, I could fork and maintain the existing features should the business-side ever go under.

That said, thank you for also clarifying that the $99 pro license is only required if a site were to stretch beyond 100 pages. I may give it a go on one project, but I can't see myself committing completely.
