It's not really a matter of ambition. At some point of time getting
behind some problem without the ability of recompiling will feel like
repairing clockwork with sledgehammer and mittens and it becomes
annoying to wait for others to do it instead. Once you are there,
seeing what it takes to recompile yourself might be the less ambitious
option.
Of course it depends on just what platform you usually work with just
how ambitious recompiling LilyPond may end up for you.
