They’re the de-facto option in most of the industries they have products for, if you decide not to use any of their products, you’re alienating yourself from your peers.

Why? I use bought or free stuff all of the time, they all export to documents they can read.

And they'll keep being the de-facto option if you just keep accepting that they are. In the end, Adobe software and their alternatives are often similar enough that transitioning from one to the other isn't difficult.
