Can you use V Carve software instead of Easel?

I don't have a question, but I do have a complaint. I bought my 1000mm X- Carve in 2020. The CNC alown was 1999 dollors. Now this upgraded machine has a better T-slot wasteboard , comes with the precision collet , comes with the dust collection setup also the stiffness upgrade and also most importantly the z axis upgrade. Oh and not 1 but 3 years of easel pro. If I bought all the upgrades and 2 more years of easel my total cost of my 2020 X-Carve would be 1999+1018 of a total of 3017 dollars. It's crazy there is no discount for people that payed top dollor for a barebones machine.
