no disagreement. people love to jerk off about precision and accuracy but the overwhelming majority of shit is +/- 10 thou shit in reality. and 1 offs are made to fit each other anyways. nobody is making 1 micron gage standards at home for any rational purpose. i like to make parts on size as much as anybody but most of the time close enough is just fine
my ole beater sb9 at home has a 12 thou saddleback but will still cut about 5 tenths over a couple inches without any monkey business. its limiting factor is horsepower. the flat belt just doesnt have the balls to cut hard enough chipbreak steel without stalling
