If engine can be produced cheaply, can it be limited "in software"? It's like saying people shouldn't use Rasberry Pi to blink an LED.

Yeah, you kind of shouldn't use a Raspberry Pi to blink an LED, though. Great "Hello World" project. But there are so many ways that are cheaper, lighter, smaller and more reliable (and don't require a lengthy boot-up).

Ah not to worry we can make it a web service and host it on the cloud and of course you wouldn't want to run without a authentication so you'd need that and also a database and what if you want to blink the led securely so you'll need to use a homorphic database which is very computationally expensive so just need a couple of VMs and anyway you should start with https://www.npmjs.com/package/blinking and go from there.
