This seems … way better than what I expected following the acquisition? What am I missing?

And I assume this is a supplement to (and not a replacement of) the existing Affinity applications?

It is a replacement, the old Affinity apps are discontinued:

"Your Affinity V2 license (via Serif) remains valid and Serif will continue to keep activation servers online. But please note that these apps won’t receive future updates.

"For the best experience, we recommend using the new Affinity by Canva app."

Oh, that’s a shame. I liked those programs.
