To me lightroom classic means a room outside your darkroom which has a large light table on it. A Schneider loupe and other magnifiers. My spot tone and brushes. A print dryer I'd use as a flattener. A large t shaped mat cutter guide and a mat cutter which spare blads and an inventory of 17x22 inch glass and metal frames. Cardboard cornders for the outsides of the frames.

You can still use LR Classic with your own hard drives and local storage.
That's what I do. LR Classic offers more features and choices than the
cloud-based regular LR. I have no intention of switching.
