> for people that don't want to set up a local model for whatever reason, it seems reasonable.

The reason being that in order to get a GPU that doesn't commit sudoku the moment you install SD, you need to shell out way more than the price of a single tattoo.

That's why people who own many 3d printers make money. If all it takes to print a model is one 3d printer, why doesn't literally every single person on the planet own one?

For sure, cost is maybe the most common reason.

But I have friends who game on cards that can run SD no problem (prior to a recent upgrade, I had SD running on a 2060S with no problem, which is like $250?), they just don't want to for other reasons (laziness, hard drive space, feel that it is too complicated, etc.).

> commit sudoku

I hate it when my GPU decides to waste time on puzzles instead of rendering things.
