Especially for prototyping. Here I am working on a widget, it takes some sensors and runs some output. Well, I can prototype basically the whole thing using adafruit boards, quic i2c connectors, and do it relatively cheap. Chips are cheap! If I wanted to actually mass produce this, we would make our own PCB, integrate all the sensors onto a single board, and so forth, but for playing around with a concept? Yeah, I'll take adafruit and some adapters any day. (Currently doing this right now for a pressure sensor that predates standard MAP sensors but operates similarly). If the concept is right... then we can think about making it for real real
