Etsy IIRC is not meant to be a general marketplace: it's meant to be for handmade or flea-market vintage type stuff.

They then have to turn that into hard rules, and one of them is you can't just manufacture stuff and turn around and sell it: manufactured stuff has to be old enough, and I think they have a particular year.

3D printing is a lot like manufacturing, and a little like making by hand. The more people use it like manufacturing, the less Etsy will want to have it.
