So what we need is for the KOP to include a mill, laser jet, lathe, and 3D printer (all CnC, of course), so that everyone can do everything exactly the same way! Yay, uniformity!

Including all that in the KOP wouldn't make any difference to the high-caliber teams. They probably wouldn't even open it, all their manufacturing is outsourced anyway. Like 1075guy said, their emphasis is on the design and engineering, not the manufacturing. If you can do the engineering, there's thousands of machine shops that can do the manufacturing for you.
