Counterpoint:
No system built by committee will ever be trivially reckonable/navigable by a single person. Therefore the only people who will derive benefit from it will mostly be committees/orgs.
When one builds for oneself, or a single person, one builds under a set of constraints that truly allow for peak accessibility.
You've only got 1 person to do the whole shebang. And if one person can do it, you're on a much better footing from which to then allow anyone to do it.
As someone in the midst of building out a lab, it's been humbling, and in a way invigorating to return to grappling with building cohesive, single operator systems.
One person trying to do too much is no bueno. It needs to be a team effort and consumers need to step-up to be occasional producers as well.
