You are absolutely right.
The artisan approach would be far more satisfying. Sometimes (at least for me) deskilling and hitting the same results makes sense. I don’t want great results in one discipline, but as many as I can.
If I want to run at 25mph I get on a bike. Kind of the same thing.
(Also for disclosure, I bought it very lightly used for a lot less than retail from a custom knife maker friend who upgraded to a full station).
