Is this a good idea? (no replies)

After reading around I've become convinced trapezoidal lead screws are the answer to improving the Z axis of my boxed frame Prusa i3.

On finding this integrated screw NEMA 17 motor it seemed like the ideal solution -- Direct transfer from the motor, no complications with couplings.

However now I'm torn.

Could I be setting myself up for problems with this rigid solution?

Would screws I could adjust/ remove/ replace be a better option?

Is there still something positive to be said for flexible aluminium couplings?


If anyone could offer me their advice on this it would be much appreciated.
