Jesus, i cant imagine what a plumber is going to charge to install/repair this. Those back walls are either 80% pex line, or the shower has some kind of ungodly proprietary fittings that are impossible to repair built directly into the shower itself.

Working on my plumbing is nightmarish enough and I only have two lines running to the shower.

    That typically has its own set of problems as I alluded to in my comment. The problem with those is that they're usually either very difficult to repair, or are just simply unrepairable if something goes wrong.

    If you can afford something that overcomplicated, you can afford to replace it when it breaks. Rich assholes aren't going to get it fixed.

    Yeah, but actual rich people don't usually have pre built molded fiberglass stalls in their homes. I feel like this is what people who buy homes they can't actually afford dream of when they think of high class. Actual rich people tend to have custom stone/tile work done for their bathrooms.
