don't worry about it being too easy, it can only make prootypes as the material is not near strong to be functional in nearly all cases.

Well, that's exactly the point, I think. It's possible to create on these machines shapes and objects that are physically impossible to create with traditional machining technology. It's possible to, if you're not careful, get yourself caught up in a plan that relies on some parts that are too difficult or time consuming to manufacture because the rapid prototyping process offers no visibility into what it takes to translate that idea into a usable form.
