Oh no doubt. But one does have the guarantee that no bits left their home and that's a big one for some.

The low hanging fruit stuff for me is more something I use it for because I have the local LLM setup running anyway. It wasn't the reason I bought it, but now that it's there I might just as well use it as much as I can.

No, this is a big misconception, and part of the cargo cult.

Use cases like the parent's are essentially about having a local LLM handle the leftover tasks. By that point, a lot of bits (main/big tasks) have already left home anyway.
