Fair, but do people print away from home very often? I’ve never printed anything outside of home since high school, but maybe I’m an outlier.
Maybe a better question, would intentionally adding a printer at home and a printer at the office be that large a barrier?
Maybe we wouldn't even need to drop auto discovery. Maybe it could work more like Bluetooth and only broadcast or accept connections while it was actively searching.
If you mean use someone else’s printer, I do it occasionally. Usually TTRPG character sheets. I am so happy AirPrint is common now. Makes my life easier.
If you mean send something from outside of my house to my house, I’ve done using a vpn.
