I have no need for such a subscription. But I don't care to market this device either. I just don't see how it could exist without a leasing option.

My only subscriptions are on Patreon, but I used to pay rent too. I didn't like paying rent, but I couldn't afford a house. I don't like the housing market, but "pay up front or leave it" makes no sense with houses. It makes no sense here either.

Could you please point out my full-throated defense of subscriptions? I asked a few questions. If you don't care to think, I don't care to chat.
