Interesting question. I need to think about it.
How would folks answer this question:
If you had a magic replicator (like the one on Star Trek) would you stop cooking your food and simply ask the computer for whatever you wanted?
Most of us hate to cook all the time and we don’t like doing the dishes, but would we want all that to be gone?
Your question is really interesting because it presumes that we need to recapture the time we spend on our gear. But what would we do with that extra time? My guess is we’d probably just waste it.
It also presumes that those of us who struggled and achieved something with our systems -- the knowledge and experience we gained -- are things we don't prize for their own sake. But I'm glad to have gotten that education. It's something I'm proud of.
The journey, man, the journey.
