I find just the opposite, myself. It is not satisfying to clean a gunked up carb or change a dirty filter or spark plug. To me it feels like irritating drudgery I am forced to undertake because of the physical limitations of reality that cause these problems. Abstract "machines" and systems built from them like factories in factorio or software do not degrade, they do not get dirty, they do not wear. I can focus entirely on creating solutions to problems rather than constantly going back and doing boring routine maintenance on something I already had working.
