10 years of developing your ability as a craftsman is what tells you how useful this machine is.
Almost anyone with very little training can grill a burger, but it takes years of practice to become a chef.

Do you have side by side comparisons of the the work done by hand vs. the work done by the CNC router?
There are two differences. A human can work to tolerances of roughly 0.031" on a good day (1/32 ") and 0.062" on an average day (1/16"). The router works to 0.005" every day. Angular tolerances are even better.
Cut quality is also markedly better, in fact it's perfect. Even a perfectly tuned table saw with a fresh blade optimized for the material will only produce chip free cuts on the top side. Even that is hard to achieve. The router leaves perfect, chip free cuts on both sides every time as long as the tool is sharp.
I hate to admit it, but the machine is a better woodworker than I am, and I've been at it 20+ years. On the bright side, it doesn't shoot for beans.
