Perhaps for you, but 2-3x the cost is an entirely different product.

You tend to have to buy 2-3 times as many SoC boards in the same lifetime as the other item from experience. Thus the savings up front are artificial.

I’ve got two dead pi’s here ceased to function while in unattended operation.
