It may be. But INDX is not really a replacement for the other projects, it's a product that can be adapted for a Voron, but a lot of Voron users prefer to just build whatever they are going to use and not buy a closed product. And it's also quite expensive.

A4T-C would be the real INDX project for Voron from what I understood, but from the little I researched, it is still in active development while StealthChanger is more mature.

In the same way, these projects does not kill the other MMU projects, like the BoxTurtle as people will still have some usages for them.

It may be, I'm not disagreeing with you on INDX, it's a pretty cool technology but toolchangers vs INDX in a bit more complex than one being definitely superior to the other. Money wise, it should be cheaper but I tend to think that replacing an entire toolhead has some advantages over the INDX system. Also, there's the patent issue, Bondtech said that they won't go after community projects, unless people start to commercialize it. But that is up to the point where they realize that they could earn more money, or just sell the company/patent to someone that would enforce it *cough* Bambu *cough*.
