I suppose if a given machine can work in LAN or sneakernet mode, then it's not THAT bad, but I was referring more to their heavy reliance on Cloud, closed source (possibly in violation of other projects' licensing), and proprietary parts. If any 3D printer maker is going to start hiding features behind a paywall someday, it's them.

They do quite a lot of things that are fine atm but are gateways to giving them a huge amount of control if they every want to flip that switch - like if they get brought out or their investors start wanting to squeezing them for all they are worth.
