Well...
That's a bull**** answere to be honest.
There are good and bad machining practices and there come a time when tooling must be changed and repaired or replaced to hold tollerences tight and provide good surface finnish on parts.
Sure the 30 series is a light weight and the parts inside are full of design compromise, but well made and poorly made is a far bigger issue with the Chinese parts.
