But they don’t have to include any of those costs.

Remember the comparison was running a model at home for yourself. The analogue is making fries at home for yourself. Thats cheaper.

Making fries at home is only cheaper because you already have a stove, knives, pots, cooking oil, etc.

Running a model at home is very cheap if you already have a M5 Studio lying around for some reason.

they do have to include the deep fat fryer and oil...

unless you want some sad thawed potatoes instead of fries

and that's going to run you a lot more than $4, and take quite a while to amortize
