purpose in life is to be a cold spare and a lab router. Why pay someone else for having a cold spare ready for next day replacement when you can have it yourself?
e.g. your production deployment might be in another country, and getting equipment in and out of the country could involve customs headwreck, delay and cost.
Or you might have only a handful of a specific type of device so there would be no justification getting a cold spare / lab unit.
There are lots of good reasons to pay for support, but then again there are also lots of good reasons not to pay for support. It's highly dependent on what you're trying to achieve and there's no one-size-fits-all approach.
