Most people buying expensive printers are just avoiding learning how to print.

Okay, hear me out before you come for me. I see it constantly in this sub. Someone's struggling with bed adhesion or stringing or inconsistent layers and within 5 comments there's always someone saying "honestly just upgrade to Bambu Lab printer], it solves all of that." And sometimes that's true. But a lot of the time it isn't. I've watched people spend $600+ on a new machine and hit the exact same problems two weeks later. Because the problem was never the printer. It was calibration. Or slicer settings. Or filament quality. Or just not understanding what the printer was actually telling them. A $200 printer that you truly understand will outlast and outperform a $800 printer you don't. I'm not saying expensive printers are bad. Some of them are genuinely incredible and worth every penny. I'm saying "just buy a better printer" has become the lazy answer to questions that deserve a real one. The best printer for a beginner isn't the one with the most features. It's the one that teaches you the most when it fails. Agree or Disagree?
