The other way to look at it is that
I upgraded my prusa for years to every new model released for much less than the cost of a new printer. They provided upgrade kits for sale.
I made my own enclosure, works great. Downloaded the parts and followed a guide. Prusa one looks nice though.
My PSU had some potential issues 6 years after I bought it and they still sent me a replacement free of charge.
The prusa slicer software has filament profiles built in that work perfectly on the printer with no testing. They are adding them constantly. There's something nice about not having to do test etc.
Those are definitely good points too for sure!
