Good point. Everyone needs to go with what works for them. The Admiral and I live in the 21st Century too. We also believe in 'back-up' to everything aboard. If your bread machine develops a problem you can always fall back on something simple like these English muffins.
One consideration for us is that we have just about used up every cubic foot of space aboard our 25' boat so we have to make some choices about the technological devices we bring aboard. Consequently we forgo the bread machine and installed a water maker, opted out of the 'soda machine' in favor of 2 1qt seltzer bottles and several hundred CO2 cartridges (600 take up about 1/2 cu. ft.) etc. We do have an electric hand held mixer but haven't used it yet.
If you got the room go for it. And as I told all my clients during my 35 years in the Technology Industry, "What's your backup plan when the system quits? What's your backup when the backup quits?"
