The use of capital punctuation implies a warning? an alert? Would this same response be warranted for Burp which is also a commercial, closed source product?
If this is an issue for some, then ZAP being open source[1] maybe favourable.
That said, Burp is the defacto tool for a reason - it's best in class. Every pentester I know, including myself, has a paid subscription. The fact that it's closed source hasn't been an issue.

Caido[1] a interception proxy written in Rust, is positioning itself as a "lightweight" alternative to Burp. It can't compete yet with Burp in terms of functionality, although it's certainly looking promising.
Perhaps one of few contenders to Burp in respect to features is ZAP[2].
