That seems like one of those cases where the production is only worth it if it's a group/family tradition to get together and enjoy everyone's company while you do it.
Like...no part of my family makes baklava, but if I had a friend whose Greek or Turkish family met up once a year and made it, I would love to come help, as much for the experience as to learn about how to make it.
In my area where I grew up (if not my actual family) that food is pierogi: families will get together and make massive quantities of pierogi, usually with the grandmas of the families directing the process. Everyone goes home with dozens and dozens for the freezer.
From what I gather, it's not worth making like...one dozen for a meal, but if you're going to go through the process, you might as well make hundreds.
