Yeah, you can get some feedback from the controllers easily (and then omit physical endstops).

I am waiting for a 3D printer that uses servo motors, though. So many failed prints come from not knowing where the extruder is. But you can just measure exactly where it is, rather than guessing based on how much current the motor used.

Servos don’t actually gain you that much. If you’re meeting enough resistance to skip steps then your print is wrecked anyway.

Servos will easily triple the cost of the printer.
