How do the team creation limits on the free plan work?

Quick question: I recently used Convex for two different hackathons, and I made two teams as a result since the teams I was working with were different.

Both teams I was working with want to proceed with continuing on their projects, but I also want to maintain a private personal team for personal projects that I don't want others to see.

However, when I tried to make a third team for personal projects going forward, I encountered this toast:

You cannot be an Admin of more than 2 free teams. Please contact support@convex.dev to increase this limit.

I couldn't really find anywhere in the docs explaining how this works. Or what best practice is if you were going to use Convex for multiple smaller hackathons with different people

If I do use Convex for hackathons in the future, should I just dump every person I collaborate with into one Team going forward? Even if that does give them access to the apps from other people I've worked with in the past too?

Would upgrading to a paid plan solve this limit?
