    What software supports it?
    Probabvly that software still uses original WinRAR binaries.
    So they can't work without additional WinRAR installation.

    All the programs must call winrar program.
    So you must buy winrar in any case, if you want to create rar archives.

    There is no any need to call paid winrar to create rar archives, if we can create 7z archive instead.
    If some user has software that can extract rar archives, same software can extract 7z archive.
    So there is no any advantages to create RAR archives from 7-zip.

    Yes there is no need but if you can provide it it became all in one software In India people are still using winzip & winrar instead of 7 zip many people didnt know abour 7 zip format so if u can provide it will be a great benifit to him

    WinRAR and winZip can extract 7z archives.
    So if some user doesn't know about 7-zip, that user still can extract 7z archive with WinRAR.
    So there is no need to create RAR archives for them.
