From a manufacturing perspective: if everyone wants 10 custom options instead of everyone gets the same, that makes it more expensive. So if 1 person does not want a camera hole, I have to write special milling code for that single one, hope it does not go wrong and keep it separate. That is a lot of extra work and extra costs.

However, custom options can make a product very appealing -see TOHKBD- and can make a semi-mass-produced product feel more premium and personal.

So it is a trade-off on my side to select which thing I can or should make custom. Please as much people as possible, without causing an enormous amount of extra work to keep the price low.

I'll look into it.
