Except that my home-built engine block consists of parts that I can
repair myself. Parts that thousands of other people use and fix
themselves, whereas the original engine has some parts welded
together so that you can never know how they work and if they break
you have to get a new engine.
Continuing the analogy. Imagine if you had to pay for a new copy of
windows
every time you broke the one you had....
Not really the point of the original post.
