That's a pretty simplistic attitude, and probably a hypocritical one as
well. Have you never rented a camper, or a cabin, or a car, or a
specialized tool? I doubt it you own everything you've ever used. More
to the point, have you never guest operated at somebody else's station,
or do you frown upon those that do?
Building a station is fine for those with the resources to do so, but
I'd posit that having the skills to operate one is at least as relevant
to the spirit of ham radio.

As we say in the country, "if one can't run with the big dogs, then
best stay under the porch". Renting a station of that magnitude
does not make one a big dog.
