Ubuntu Pro has nothing to do with payments, it is a free service unless
you want to use it commercially for a datacenter or some such ...
Up to 22.04 packages from universe only got security patches from the
community ... that means about 4-5 packages got fixed from the whole
lot of 25000 packages over the lifetime of an LTS simply because there
were not many community contributors ...
With 22.04 Canonical decided to hire a bunch of new security
maintainers to actually offer the same level of CVE fixes in universe
as it does for main, this is why apt now shows you the available fixes
...
