Those building homes need better tools than someone putting together a few pieces of wood. Interestingly, when I have a friend of mine over who is a professional carpenter, he doesn't make fun of me because of the saw I use. He knows I don't do it for a living, I don't need the level of tool he does for his job. Would that computer users would behave the same way.
But I bet he quietly worries about you. A non-professional using a poorly-made saw is much more likely to injure themselves than if they were using a well-made saw. The work they produce is also going to be of poorer quality. A non-professional should really be more sensitive to quality than a pro.
There really is no excuse for accepting crappy. We are all demeaned by crappy. It is wrong to support the makers of crappy.
