Many people don’t care about resale or pass-along value in the things that they own or gift. And even if one does, then you just consider the diminished value as another cost of having the personalized item. For many people, especially gift givers where the item is about far more than economics, it is worth it. And it is very unclear to me why "resale value" should trump about a million other considerations.
