I wasn't making a personal recommendation to you? I was answering more broadly why someone would use Pinecone in the future.
Every new software company like this has "why wouldn't everyone just use x existing open source project, why even try to make it a real business with a hundred devs, actual support/marketing, and big ambitions to be more than a plugin to Postgres?"
Based on the videos and interviews with their lead dev I've seen Pinecone has some quite large plans by integrating with a wider stack and integrating with company databases, well beyond what they have done so far releasing an early version of the DB.
Regardless, getting wider adoption via actual businesses investing in marketing/sales to seed ideas in the market can spur development and potentially progress/innovate the tooling across the wider market, that feeds back into open source.
