Yes
I agree Pirvan, that 2 axis tilt print method only tricks printer to give slightly better detail by canting object at like 45 degrees both ways. done that b4 and very few models gain anything by that. what I have done with 'functioning models requiring strength like on a load baring hole/opening is find a way to lay model so the hole is flat and layers are solid all the way around instead of being made up of 100s of laminates that can pop apart easy. or make infil more solid with a honeycomb pattern for stress relief under use etc. algorithms have little to do with these important considerations. customers I printed these parts for greatly appreciated me printing the parts with this consideration (plus I am Engineering minded). as for art/show type models the less support you can get by with to speed printing and save both material and removal of support. the better. and that is what most my prints are. just display accessories for scale dioramas. but I have done some usable parts too.
