I was loathe to go down the the don’t shop with Cousins route but they have a bad reputation which is why I was guiding you towards Cookson. Cookson have just started stocking Foredom and the micromotor is a good bit cheaper than the good price my husband paid when he bought mine.
I haven’t used a flex I since college in the 70s and was recently gifted the micromotor and it couldn’t be lighter to use for the reasons given by Dennis which is also why it makes it so expensive. It might be worth going for a cheaper brand micromotor as a starter to get a feel for it. You might find it works well for years and meets your needs
