A small shop does not need to choose a tool only because it looks exciting. The better question is whether the shop needs in-house iteration or whether outsourced proof samples are enough for the next product idea.
An outsourced proof can be useful when the design is stable and the seller only needs a small number of finished examples. A compact desktop galvo workflow can be more interesting when the seller expects to test layouts, change artwork often, or document several sample rounds before choosing an offer.
For AntBelt G1, the comparison should stay conservative. It can describe the workflow benefit of a compact desktop testing setup without claiming that every shop needs one or that every material plan will work immediately.
The clean decision path is to list the first two products, identify the blanks that need testing, and decide whether repeated in-house samples would make the next month easier to manage.
