Kind of what I did, though my AxeFX lived in there for a while for the full Petrucci fanboy moments

Lol!!! That cracks me up! I just got a FM3 - and I am really digging it. There are so many good free tutorials out there now, like Leon Todd's, that I have never read the manual yet. I was able to dial in a tone that sounds pretty close to my ENGL Savage 120 - and still sounds awesome, and my back thanks me! lol!

I also think you can't overlook the impact of social media on this, especially to anyone who doesn't have preconceived notions of what a guitar should should be. Micing cabs is not easy and Pete Thorn is one of the few people I've seen do it well. With something like an Axe-FX you can pretty easily produce videos like this.

Not only does it sound amazing but you can just download the preset for free. A real amp is a tough sell against that.
I’m going to borrow the phrase “preconceived notions of what a guitar should be.” It’s an interesting topic.

Modelers do offer good sounds and convenience. Modelers do not cure gear acquisition syndrome. I do not think anything is a tough sell in the guitar world because the option to have “both” exists. That is the road we tend to take.
