I think a 3D printer is another tool … and like a hammer it can be used to turn every problem into nails.

It all depends on how much scratch building you do and how big your supply of gribbly bits is.

These 2D cutting plotters (or whatever their name is) can do things that 3D printers can’t and vice versa.
They probably are a few (practical) steps below a laser cutter, but I have no doubt that a fanatical hobbyist would have use for both.
