In my opinion using an almost-zero-components programmer is very cheap
in components, but it might / will cost you in time. But I have no
real-world examples of how much time, so a real figure (even if only a
rough estimate from a single person) would be interesting.

How such a figure should influence the choosing of a programmer depends
a how you value your time. A hobbyist with plenty of free time and eager
for the learning experience will (should) of course make a different
choice than a professional who has to bill $100/h.
