Modern product name suffixes are weird! A PM decoder ring to help:

"Prime": really hoping the convenience means distracts you from the subsistence wages

"Plus"/"+": oh god, we're tired and we've been at this branding offsite for 3 days; make it stop!

"Pro": not advised for use in professional settings

"a"/"ti": last year's product, fixed

"X": too late for Prime, too early for Plus

[other roman neumerals]: not for the US market

"Studio": costs as much as a studio

Need to add a few:

[this year]: features hopelessly out of date
[next year]: buggy and broken
[version w/ decimal]: by the time you download and install this, a required update will be available
LT/LE: our real software is too exclusive for you so use this demo instead
[number 3 replacing an E in title]: we're just so exhausted. please send help
Deluxe: the worst/cheapest option
Free: update your antivirus first
