Why no interest in reel to reel if you're looking for the ultimate sound?

Wondering why more people aren't into reel to reel if they're looking for the ultimate analog experience? I know title selection is limited and tapes are really expensive, but there are more good tapes available now than ever before.
People refer to a recording as having "master tape quality",  well you can actually hear that master tape sound through your own system and the point of entry to reel to reel is so much more affordable than getting into vinyl.  Thoughts?

Why would anyone even consider a format with no manufacturing support and almost non-existent media content?

And who in their right mind, would pay for this 😳

I sincerely wished, reel to reel format survived through the test of times cause it’s a much superior format in terms of SQ.
