A few things. Quentin Harley intends this to be the next default. (RepRap is not really a monolithic thing. It is just a bunch of semi-like minded people working to make self-replicating machines. Anyone can make these wiki pages and they are not moderated unless they are extremely misleading or false.) That is different from it being the next default. Prusa i3 is by all accounts the default and it looks like it is unlikely to be supplanted any time soon.
Wally is around 800-900g and I think Morgan is between 500-600g. That is hardly a difference in cost. $6. Also this is only a difference of about 18 robot hours. (Hours I don't have to do anything.) I am working to reduce the weight of the plastic in Wally but it is important to note that it is not a big issue.
To be clear, I am quite certain that Wally, Morgan, Simpson, Rostock, etc are not going to be the default build until they are easier to setup, use, and calibrate. We are already cheaper and easier to build.
