Because you want a poorly finished piece that takes multiple tries to print right because the extruder jams, piece warps, or a misaligned head crashes into the object turning everything into a goopy mess?
The occasional time my Replicator 1 works on the first try, it's magical. Most of the time it's an exercise in frustration.
