Here's another way to look at it. THere are tens of thousands of 3D printers out there and people willing to help. It may mean that certain components are throw-away instead of reusable, but thats acceptable in my mind. ...it also may mean systems are less than perfect in some cases.

...but if you were gasping for breath and the hospital was out of commercial respirators, then the Doctor says "Hey we have this other respirator. Its not quite as good or quite as sterile, do you want to use it?"

...what's your response?
