I'll play devil's advocate. What is Bambu Lab's motivation to provide lifetime free cloud services for a onetime revenue transaction? They could demand a subscription. But they probably know for casual users this would be unwelcome. They could seek to monetize via other means like ads or cross and up-sell. Third party clients are a risk to these.

I don't see the ground the OSS community are standing on to demand Bambu provide free services.

If they don't want to provide free cloud services in perpetuity they could make their 3D printers work offline without restrictions.
