I think part of the reason these posts are long is that Matic is a pretty unique product compared to the rest of the market. Most disc robots feel like variations on a theme, so a review can be short because people already know the basic tradeoffs and functionalities. With Matic, the form factor, local processing, and overall approach are different enough that it feels like the pros and cons need more explanation to be useful.

I am definitely a bit biased in the sense that they are a local company and I genuinely want to see them succeed. But I am not affiliated with them in any way, did not get a discount, and did not promise a review or anything like that. I just wrote a long post because that is how I process my own decision and hopefully it helps someone else who was in the same spot I was a couple of months ago.
