It's expensive, but it's also expensive in lots of different avenues. It's not like you can just go "well I'll never buy a big pre-built proprietary printer then I'll just make it myself! Open source forever!" Because that's the road to leads to sourcing and building your own voron from scratch and spending a thousand dollars on parts
