If you are happy to spend/mod, I don't see why anyone would talk someone out of it. I don't see anyone saying that people shouldn't worry about electric grinders because hand-grinding isn't a torturous experience, let alone with this kind of regularity.
If you and the other proponents of temp-surfing left it at "it's not that bad" I could understand, but no, if someone doesn't like temp surfing it's always because they're lazy, or artless, or ignorant, or otherwise incapable of learning, as though working with technically less capable equipment and being able to force it to punch above its weight holds some sort of cachet. I'm an individual with a modicum of common sense, which dictated that I shouldn't put up with an inconvenience that I could remove for the sake of 40 bucks and an hour of tinkering. I bet I'm more intimately knowledgeable of my machine than most people who temp surf after seeing SeattleCoffeeGear do it on this one video one time.
FWIW there's no anger in that post, I just think it's silly.
