Probably not as much as many of the people on here are doing. I'm cycling every day and sometimes in the weekend nothing insane to be honest, 70 miles a week probably but does that really matter? What I'm struggling understanding is, given I can afford one and everyone keep saying that custom steel frames are just the best, why should I settle for less? What am I missing?

More than you think, you'll feel very different on a bicycle after 50 miles riding non stop.
His point is more that you're rushing into getting a custom frame rather than riding more, joining the LFGSS group ride, etc. having fun.
You might want provision for a mudguard in winter for example, or two bottle cages, rear mount for a back brake etc.

How much cycling are you doing? I was doing quite a lot when I got the bike.
It's more that you don't need custom.
