@pratik @munish Hmmm. Justification. Let’s reframe this in what for me is a more liberating way of thinking about these matters.

We have a household budget. Within that budget, my husband and I each have a monthly allotment of Fun Money, no questions asked. My husband’s Fun Money periodically goes to amps. Why does he buy yet another amp? One has this kind of foot pedal; one works better outdoors… I don’t know… and even better, I don’t care. It’s his Fun Money.

Anna’s Fun Money, now, never goes to amps. Anna’s Fun Money tends to go to analog office supplies, and the occasional electronic device.

So I ask not whether it is justified to get the Scribe even though I have a similar device. I ask whether my Fun Money fund can afford it yet. And… probably not, because I’ve got my eye on something else. But if my Fun Money can afford it, that’s all the justification I need.
