I basically agree that scratch and etch isn't worth it.

But why don't YOU stop playing around with UV and start using toner
transfer? it is much cheaper and much less fuss ;-)

Oh well, you see, everyone should do what he thinks best. If nobody had
tried we'd still use permanent markers or rub-on symbols in FeCl..

You get my point, everyone should make his own judgements. I appreciate
your opinion on the matter, but not everyone will find UV as the method of
choice, been there, done that, have other opinion.
