better justification for buying tools than do hobby woodworking projects.

Sure but it's hard to "justify" a $2500 tool for a remodel job. It's
easier to call it a hobby where no justification is needed (or
possible). ;-)
That said, my Festool track saw has seen more use as a home
maintenance tool as it has anything else.
Sounds like your pitch (to your significant other and/or yourself) needs
some work.... Frame it in terms of "I cannot do this job without that tool"
and things go much better. ;~)
