That's assuming a level of complexity this doesn't appear to be shooting for. Sure, you probably couldn't build an RPi or BBB with this guy, but it seems that they're targeting a lower end shop trying to spin a few iterations of a low-cost IoT device before sending it out to a fab house. The level of complexity needed for that hardware isn't huge.

I could also see e.g. the guys handbuilding guitar effects going nuts over something like this.

Yes! That would be great. So much more consistent than handsolder.
