Sometimes when I think about my home network, I think about it in terms of what will happen when I die and what I will be inflicting on my family as the ridiculous setups stop working. Or like, how much it would cost a police forensics team to try to make any sense of it.
I think "home labbing" fulfils much the same urge / need as the old guys (I hate to say it but very much mostly guys) met by creating hugely detailed scale model railways in their basement. I don't mean that in a particularly derogatory way, I just think some people have a deep need for pocket worlds they can control absolutely.
