A modular costs more than an equivalent mono synth so why get
one ? For some, part of the reason is that they expect to be
able to upgrade it by buying new (or more) modules.

Good thing that third parties keep making MOTM format modules.

DIY (and I don't mean kits) is a huge time sink but it gives you
a certain degree of independence.
