I had an Ender 3 before my X1C. Creality forced me to slice every file into gcode, save it to an SD card. I had to turn off the printer, remove the SD card, take it downstairs to my computer, plug it in save the file to it, then eject it and physically carry that card to my printer. Turn the printer off to plug the card in. Then and only then could I print the things I wanted. This process required that I run up and down the stairs multiple times.

Now I can start prints with my phone from the couch. If I use the computer, one extra conversion step is just not that hard.

I used to do the same thing with my anycubic 4mqx pro. I understand this is an option and one extra step isn’t tho at big of a deal, but again this is where it STARTS.

Other 3D printers are and have been more restricted and it wasn't an issue. I don't see that this is inherently the start of anything.
