NSX license professional doubt

[Thanksgoditsfri]

Hello there,

We have a doubt with our NSX license. Few months ago, we bought a NSX professional license, and we know the products available for those license, https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2145269

The doubt is the following:

We can deploy a load balancer (not included on professional license), also we can use Application Rule Manager  (not included on professional license) and surely we have the same with other products that we dont deploy yet. Why can we use that products? Can use that but we dont have official support?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
