You don't need all of EMC2, you could just use a GladeVCP panel and HAL.
The parport might well be fast enough, too.

Write a HAL file to load 3 encoders and the GladeVCP UI, hook up the
pins, set the scale, and you are done.

Adding the ability to zero the numbers or type in a value would be a
little more work, but can still be handled in HAL and/or a python
module.

However, it would also be relatively simple to do it with an Arduino
and an LCD shield.

The idea that there is no such thing as objective truth is, quite simply, wrong.
