To me, that seems the best compromise between the extremes in this discussion.
Design a state-of-the-art S-100/IEEE-696 box and cardset (Z-80 based)
including an FDD controller which could use a standard 3.5" drive, offer
the whole thing as a kit with bundled CP/M (or clone).

Sort of like the difference between a concours restoration of a Shelby
Cobra and one of the Cobra kits.
