That's been a thing for years, though it used to be ultimaker or prusa before Bamboo.
Just like there are people who race with cars, and there are people who fix and tune cars, there are people who just want to print stuff, and others that really like tinkering with 3D Printers. Not many people around with inkjet printers as their hobby, and some people see 3d printers in the same light - just a tool that should do what they want it to, and that's it.
And I also love the tinkering part more - be it 3d printers, rc cars, airguns, electric scooters, game console, you name it - once I've modified something to be exactly like I want it to be, I'm much more likely to move to another tinkering project than actually use what I've just built :P
I would sure like a singular place where shared knowledge is listed and categorized for all adjustments, tests, and uncertainty tweaks needing verification to be able to apply to a design, slice, or printer to maximize and not waste potentially a lot of time, plastic and guess work.
