I hear you. You're alot more disciplined and analytical (not to mention practical) in your approach than I have been, plus I was being a tad facetious
.
If I decided at some point I wanted something that was more of an investment, though, I think I'd want to do the same thing. Maybe someday. I don't have big bux into any of my mandolins, and the luthier I know is 2-1/2 hours away in another state. The other day I was thinking that one of the tuners was having a problem on my Stradolin, and it would probably be springtime before I could make the trip to have it looked at. So it was nice to have a backup.
BTW, did you get your files transferred? If not, I was thinking it could be your USB cable.
