You're making an apples to oranges comparison. If you knit a scarf and give it away, all you're left with is the knitting needles and the knowledge of how to make another scarf.

Live and let live, my friend. Nobody is forcing you to write ansible playbooks, build your own homelab, or comment on posts you view as a waste of everybody's time.
