But to me the whole idea breaks down when using a Closed Loop Stepper or a Servo. At least unless you feed the encoders into LinuxCNC it seems to heavily weaken the idea.
Yes, that's the whole idea! The encoder is read by LinuxCNC, PID processes the difference between commanded and actual position, and sends out commands to the motor drive to minimize error. LinuxCNC originally came from the servo world, and various stepper "back ends" were later applied.
