Yes, that's an option. Technically that is a servo system from a classification point of view. Anything that contains a motor, a controller and a feedback mechanism is a servo system.

I actually see that as an option (ODrive) in the featured article :). I am really curious to play with them myself as I’m about to start building the MPCNC.
Nothing against your advice just providing another option that uses steppers that don’t skip an occasional step (that is to say that if you ask for more torque from a stepper than it can handle, smart or not, it will not produce more torque out of thin air).
