A good hand lens is something everybody should own. It makes
life pretty darn miraculous! And it empowers the bonsai owner,
who can see thrips, spider mites, powdery mildews and other
little things really easily.

Too true. But has anyone ever seen a hand lens mentioned in the
traditional list (of mostly superfluous) "necessary" bonsai tools
found in every beginner book?
