I agree with your sentiment, but what I said about the earlier quoted line is true and is also true about the above. You may disagree with someone about public policy, but that doesn't entitle you to call them "brainless." It's called "civil discourse" for a reason, and I know you don't have to look up the word "civil."
Have you built a 3D printer? I have. (And not a RepRap derivative either!) Have you ever developed a your own plans for a device or a sellable useful object from one? I have. If you have, then you should know that this is not a "brainless" activity. Even producing a one-shot disposable pistol on one is far from "brainless."
I also agree with your priority ordering: That was never my issue. (Reread the above, and reply to my actual position, please!)
Oh, please!
