Yeah, but those things cost money, usually per user, and with good reason.
Just comprehensive SSO alone is something that costs around $5/user/month. Sure, the Linen team could write it themselves, but it won't work anywhere nearly as nicely or as performant as signing up for an SSO service that works with everything a corporate uses for sign-ins.
So, yeah, it can be $1/user/month now, but it's unlikely to remain that way when they need to add in all the Slack functionality. It's also unlikely to remain performant when it matches Slack feature-for-feature.
