You could say the same about software; clearly it's missing the same 'ease and cheapness of creating the bespoke idea you have'.

> Nobody does woodworking because it's necessary.

I don’t understand this, can you explain or am I missing something?

I probably didn't phrase that well. I meant that garage woodworking is not necessary, in an economic sense. It's an optional/leisure activity.

And people still do it anyway. Which is great. Because it's still useful, and valuable. Just not necessary.

Do it if it's your thing. I fletch arrows I might never shoot or will not fly right. Just an itch to scratch.
