I'm an outlier in almost every set I belong to. About the only
exceptions are things like "number of fingers, noses, legs..." - on
those points I'm right in line with the mainstream of humanity - and
very small and highly specific sets like "retrocomputing Unix geeks
preferring to run heavily modded twenty-year-old NetBSD at home".

Couldn't do your job with an SS20, or couldn't do your job with _only_
an SS20? Even I couldn't do my jobs with _only_ the SS20; as I said,
most of my work is done on work-owned machines which I ssh to. The
SS20 depends on at least two other machines to reach anything outside
my house network (my main house router machine and my border PPPoE
machine), and they, alas, are x86-architecture (the former is a peecee
with a bunch of Ethernets in it; the latter is, IIRC, a PCEngines Alix
something-or-other - some peecee-architecture machine in a tiny
blue/green metal case: three Ethernets, serial console, disk via USB,
and a wall-wart for power).
