I think it was a mistake to say issue, because no, I agree with what you're saying. What I should have said, was that it's probably the reason it's not used primarily in place of ABS or PLA. Many seem to be printing for fun... little knick knacks here and there, and just making random fun little objects in order to play with their printers... so it makes sense to go with the filament that's half the cost. Why burn through expensive filament when there's no need? Even when it comes to prototyping something that won't really be used.

For parts, I think it looks great. I'll probably be picking some up once I've assembled my printer and have had a chance to get comfortable with ABS / PLA.
