No need to romanticize a real world, non-glamorous manufacturing process aka "handicraft". Manual labor is hard.
With any highly engineered race bike, I'd rather it be made in Taiwan by a serious working person who has years of experience than by an art school dilettante in Germany or England or Italy. And that's a premium worth paying for; your teeth and bank account will thank you.
