How does the Bambu Lab H2C compare against the more budget friendly P2S? Does the multi-nozzle “Vortek” system really make that much of a difference?

Bambu sent the H2C at no cost for testing and feedback. I’m not under any obligation to make a video or say anything about it, but I also recognize that this is a very expensive printer. I’ve been absolutely amazed with it, but I do want to reiterate that the printer I chose to spend my money on was the P2S Combo and I’m very happy with that decision.
