Absolutely right. China will never let tooling material leave the country. even if they got wind you were going to try it all your dies would suddenly grow legs and start shuffling about just out of your reach. Its just how the country is. Manufacturing material and intellectual property get sucked up like a vacuum.
I remember not too many years ago Mike giving a behind the scenes tour of products being made in China. I really feel the only way any of that tooling gets used again is if it stays right were it's at.
As to OP's original question - continue to love the stuff I have. Look for more on the secondary market as I want to. And probably break down and gets one of those new all in one tiu packages that only work through the app, but not until next year.
I am still very curious to see what happens with the coming software company that was originally discussed.
