What you said is pretty much on point. The way I see it, the only reason to even attempt to setup a Patreon is if you're so popular that you can't handle the amount of commission requests you're getting, i.e. "I'm popular enough people will just throw money at me to stay active". It's pretty damn hard to get to this level, and I know the most successful Patreon artists only go that route once taking commissions isn't worth their time in comparison anymore.
