> because 3d printing is not there yet

Ya, it is, and it’s been there for quite a while now thanks to Bambu.

The X1 just works. Coming up on a year of frequent use, I can count the number of failed prints on one hand. It’s incredible.

Both modern (pre assembled) Prusa and Bambu are very good at this. They guide you through the full setup process, automate first layer reliable, have decent stock profiles.

It's all just much less tinkering then 5 years ago.

Tell me you don’t anything about 3d printing without telling me you don’t know anything about 3d printing.
