Agreed. My knowledge/experience with synths is limited but between DSPs that're as available as ketchup and Kleenex for the past few decades and an LLM there's not much to rolling one's one. A watch on the other hand is higher LOE
There's not much to rolling one's own FM synth, either, and there are dozens of successful commercial products built on it.
