A WooCommerce membership is an ACCESS-CONTROL grant: the plan's target ids/categories/tags gate specific products, posts and pages and apply member-only discounts and free shipping, enforced per request. A Wix Pricing Plans order is a BENEFIT ENTITLEMENT: it records that a member holds a paid plan, and what that unlocks is configured separately on the page/blog/group being protected. Recreating enrollments as plan-orders therefore preserves WHO is entitled and to WHICH plan, and preserves nothing about WHAT that entitlement opens until the gating is reconfigured on the Wix side. Migrating enrollments without also reconfiguring gating leaves members holding plans that unlock nothing — surface this at the review gate, do not let it read as a clean subscription migration."
