Traffic identification is a big W

$179 for a WiFi 7 AP that is low end. Lowest specs possible and still called the "Pro" model which couldn't be further from the truth at an inflated price. It's a poor version of a "Lite" model if I ever saw one. By this logic, when the actual "Pro" model with appropriate specs to fully support WiFi 7 finally gets released it will probably be $299 with some lame justification from Ubiquiti. Oh, its $189 now...how great is that?
And if your whole business model has been to NOT charge a licensing fee, it really is time to get over it and move on. NO need to mention it unless you are going to implement one.

I don't think you understand how much of a selling point no license fee is in enterprise gear. Many enterprise router-firewalls have licensing fees of over $2,000 dollars a year, every year and become extremely limited or bricked without an active license.
Additionally It's pretty rare to see new features added. This matters less to the ent market, because it's bought for a specific scope and purpose, functional on day one. But still a nice way to extend the life of equipment to its MTBF breakover point.
