I do you one better, I admit that I was a few times on the fence on buying a Bambu Printer exactly because of this. But the Apple approach they are pursuing was always off putting. Nonetheless they pushed the whole industry to new goals, which is very nice.
I have to admit I gave in and bought one, despite my misgivings about their approach and at this stage I have no regrets. It really does "just work" in a wonderful way.
At first I was annoyed they used non standard nozzles, but AliExpress sorted that out in no time. The nozzles they use on newer machines are pretty great too, no more burning myself trying to unscrew a nozzle to swap it.
There's no doubt that some of their decisions have been questionable, but some I really do agree with.
