If given the option I would trade the LED strip to not wait any longer than absolutely necessary. That's approximately the difference we're talking in BoM cost.

Now, I don't want to overstate it: it's simple disappointment. I'm still interested in the machine, as is.

Oh absolutely, I'm with you there. LED strips are so unnecessary. I'd much rather the money go towards something functional.
