It is currently not possible to select the Professional License for the limited time free products.
Previous months it was possible. Now it is not. Without anything on the site telling that only Personal license is free. And the Professional License is discounted to Free but it can’t be selected now.

Steps to Reproduce
Just try selecting the Professional License on the free item and it doesn’t work in either Firefox or Chrome.
Expected Result
As with previous months it should be allowed to selected the Professional license.
Observed Result
The Professional license can’t be selected for the currently free items.
I’m experiencing the same issue on mobile and desktop Chrome. I pick the “Professional” license, then 1 frame after it automatically switches to the “Personal” one. Either Epic Games are stopping providing truly free licenses on the limited-time free deals, which isn’t great but was likely coming ever since the introduction of the license split, or it’s not an intended behavior and we should be able to obtain the “Professional” license for these items.
In both cases, the current UI behavior certainly looks like a bug.
Personal opinion
I think I’d lose interest in the program if the limited-time free deals are going to be “Personal” license only. I’ve been grabbing them to make a collection for the later use anywhere I wish (UE, Unity, Blender, Godot, etc) without having to worry about royalties, but the limited licenses add a huge legal factor & project finances management overhead which makes it simply not worth it to me.
