Thanks for the info.
I intended to post the profile suggestion to Longer3D's user community forum, but they've deleted the sub-forums and shut down posting with no further notice... likely due to it's inundation with fake posts and spam.

I am familiar with probably 50 companies that make 3d printers and I have never heard of Longer3D. Anyway you are asking the wrong question:
Why has no one at Longer3D sent the Cura team any machine profiles? They've been around for a long time (I hear) and they still haven't submitted a machine profile? You just have to do a git pull request and if it's a printer that is not yet in Cura, the Cura team will just accept it as is. So it's pretty easy to submit a machine profile.
Alternatively, one of the users of Longer3D could create a machine profile at least for *one* of the Longer3D products. It's really easy to submit one of these to be permanently part of Cura.
Please look at this link - this is the place to discuss issues with the Cura team and Longer3D has already been mentioned specifically here:

As gr5 says...until Longer3D puts some profiles together and submits them to Ultimaker/Cura, there probably won't be one.
My own printer is an Ender 3 Pro and the definition file was written by "Trouch.com" who I suppose was contracted by Creality to write the definition files for all their printer models.
This is from the Longer3d site: Add Longer 3d printers into Cura 4.8 and 4.9(WINDOWS). I didn't view it but according to the title the video would seem to cover the topic.
