I asked for recommendations on espresso machines. This does
not mean I don't know anything about coffee and/or espresso, it
does mean I'm willing to learn more about currently available
espresso machines. Is that too much to ask?

I'm perfectly willing to believe that what I want to come out of
the espresso machine doesn't meet your definition of "espresso".
And even that your definition is the correct one.
Still, what I'm after cannot come out of any other sort of coffee
maker, so I still need an espresso machine to make it, misnomer
may that be.
