Electronic leadscrew, or full CNC?
And it looks like pendant support was 'enabled' last year in grblHAL, but I don't see the "I'm with stupid guide" that I would need to connect it.

General question: Why use an old LPT interface with so many open source controller available?

Budget budget CNC controllers - what's the bottom line?
You might want to look at grblHAL. It is the 32-bit evolution of Grbl. I make a 5 axis breakout board for it based on a Teensy 4.1. It supports step rates up to 400 kHz which allows you a lot of freedom in selecting microsteps and high speed rapids. All in with the Teensy, it costs about $65-70, depending on options. Here is a gallery with a number of machines based on grblHAL. More about grblHAL here. It is actively being developed with people adding features and porting to new processors (RaspBerry Pico is coming).

Building a DIY Pen Plotter
Grbl on ESP32 absolutely is a thing. I've been using it drive my robots for years. https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC

Do $3-5k machines have an effortless way of storing and starting a routine request prompt?
Not that I'm aware. The closest I know is the FluidNC firmware https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC for ESP32 boards.

ESP32-S3 SPI bus
According with this image from the espressif github there are some pins (35, 36, 37, 47, 48) with "SPI functions", and some others marked with the tags "FSPI" and "Subspi" (9-14, 35-38).

I have some a4988 stepper driver and esp 32 but no driver .How can i code for a diy cnc with these? What will be the instructions?
I use this one. WiFi access, upload gcode to SD card and fire the job. Pretty happy about that. I bought one of the boards they make, and they provide support for that so buying from them makes things easier. But there's more [supported hardware](https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC/wiki/Hardware-that-Runs-FluidNC). There are configurations ready for some of those cheap boards and a friend made one work out of the box.

6 pack eps32 controller?
I've been looking at the tinybee since I need 4 axes and external driver support... I don't see it on the hardware that runs fluidNC page https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC/wiki/Hardware-that-Runs-FluidNC
