What I worry about is the developer kneecapping the whole thing by not releasing design files and BOMs for 3D prints and PCBs under an open source license. The point of a device like this is going to be longevity, upgradability, and repairability. Having to rely on some dude to keep making a kit is completely antithetical to that. I love the idea of being able to repurpose my framework parts in different ways as I upgrade, but I won't be jumping to buy a kit that I can't trust to be available a year later.
