The downside is the wallet cost.

The wallet cost is tied to the performance cost. Once the tech matures companies will start competing over pricing and "the wallet cost" comes down. The rest of what you're saying is just you repeating yourself. And now I also have to repeat myself.

If you argued they Raytracing is a money grab at this very moment I’d agree. The tech isn’t quite there yet, but I imagine within the next decade it will be. However you’re presenting raytracing as something useless and that’s just disingenuous.

There's no reason to argue over the now, I agree that right now raytracing really isn't worth it. But if you're going to continue arguing that raytracing will never be worth it you better come up with better arguments.
