I was expecting somebody to make this type of a comment.
I thought of that myself:
1. First, I found the labs and the masters within those labs that
were suitable for me.
2. That was the limit of what was available to me
(physically, as I didn't have access to a lab myself, or financially, -
where I couldn't afford anything beyond that).
3. Now, about giving photos to be printed at a lab.
Because of the demise of the photo-labs, it's harder to find those
that are suitable (and affordable). But the main and the bigger reason is
the sheer quantity of photos that digital enabled.
And yes, what is available to me, as well as what I am capable of, - both
have changed, and in most cases, I won't be satisfied with the results
if I brought my files to a generic lab without any prior processing
(and selection!!!) done by me.
BTW, as for the time, - for me even just the process of copying, importing
photos into LR, and doing the selecton process - already take considerable
amount of time.
I don't have hard deadline either. But when you are taking photos
at an event (that being a dance event, professional conference or even
an outing with friends), people want to see those photos soon, not
a year later.

By the way with digital, you can still take it to the lab and have it
processed for you. You might not like what you get back, but I've had
that problem with minilabs back in the day.
