Honestly, as the expectations change I don't see you really have a choice unless you're in the top 1% of engineers and can essentially dictate your terms. Even then I'd say the clock is running out.
At some point (we might already be there) someone insisting on doing everything manually will be seen like a carpenter who does traditional joinery. They might exist, but they're never going to be a significant percentage of the market compared to 4 guys with nail guns knocking walls together in hours.
Because for the vast majority of cases, "good enough" is good enough.
