I learned Flutter for my own needs, I make about 25k€ / year after taxes, I couldn't afford to pay this kind of money for hobby stuff. Even Embarcadero stuff at 5k a seat is way too much (I can get a good used car for this price).
Even at work I have to fight to get better hardware than Raspberry Pis (they regularly have black screens that only a few hard reboots solve).
The problem is that we don't live in the same world: there are companies where money flows and other companies where every cent has to be justified because money doesn't grow magically under unicorns hooves ...
