How, exactly, does Google keep users hostage for money?

G Suite Workspace users are being kept hostages by Google unless the users pay more money[1].

Can't they just migrate off of it? I guess the only part being held hostage according to the article are their Play Store purchases, if even that (the article says the purchases' fate is unclear).

To me it seems Google has given ample time to either migrate off of it or to become a customer.
