I see a lot of people claim they tune/calibrate their printer any time they use a new spool of filament. But does anyone actually do this? It feels like a waste of time when filament is so consistent, even between brands. I can understand doing it for specialty rolls, but for basic pla? Seems unnecessary

Automatic flow calibration is so nice. I don't use any of the other "smart" features, but it's worth the extra cost just for that.
