I would hope that only people who really need such a machine would get one, rather than just another tech toy that will end up being a net contribution to waste

  If you mean me, I run a shop with various machines that produce things as a business. Irrespective of who you mean, you should perhaps keep your sanctimony closer to your chest, it grates here.

I meant anyone. There's no need to attack. The ancestor comment wanted to 3d print a bottle drying stick, someone replied and said just make it out of wire, and I endorsed that idea, and clarified by saying that a machine is a waste when your needs are simple. Identifying use cases where specialized machines are not appropriate is worthy of discussion. I really meant bending wire hangers and pointed out that it would be bad to get a machine when literally bending wire hangers would work.
