For some people, building isn't "work", it's a major part (maybe
entirely) of the fun of the project. Those 3000 nights of building may
be the thing that kept him going. There are quite a few home builders
who spend 2000 hours building a plane, fly it for maybe a year or two,
then sell it and buy a new kit to build because they enjoy building more
than they do flying.

Life is just too short to use that kind of time.

For you - maybe, but for someone who loves the building aspect, life is
too short for *flying* because it means they spend less time *building*.
