Also, such tight integration without being disconnectable at vital connection points will ensure product upgrade hell later on in life. Simply because that stops you from ripping out and replacing the specific parts of a solution you don't like, don't need, find better alternatives for. But instead will likely give you the experience of the domino effect: upgrade one thing and start a cascade of upgrade needs, even in places not that obvious at first. Try budgetting and planning for that.

Another thing, full premium SA now doesn't ensure free upgrading to the full product suite upgrade later on. There's the likely possibility that you'll have to pay extra for some extra's (along with the advise to pay for an extra SA for those extra's).
