the sizes I mentioned are for parts I have now that I 3D print a lot of, which works fine but is expensive compared to machining them. These machines would mostly be prototyping things I design, and potentially production work for those same parts if they're successful. There's also the possibility of job shop work.
We're somewhat trying to future-proof by getting machines that are way more than what we currently need, but capable of whatever crazy stuff we come up with.
You might want to check out Mazak (integrex) J-200 and maybe integrex i-100 (non bartac and bartac ?) ... [ positional and sim 5 axis on mill turn platforms]. Similar price to 3 axis mill + MSY type turning center [But might be overkill]. [Not an expert on chip conveyors and plastics / related hassles thereof ].
Sorta get where you are coming from,
Personally I had to abandon the idea of over loading a prototype cell for scaling and production , but break into two, keep the prototype "cell" intact and buy more production oriented machines for specific product lines. As and when needed - depends on your floor space and premises / flexibility to scale.
Means (maybe) one does not have to fret too much (immediately) about counter spindles and bar feeders (perhaps) ? It's one of those things where if you go for a counter spindle "Done in one" marketing speak, then also have to consider parts catcher / automation (robot or gantry loader) to make it worth while. That all adds up a bit and might be obstructive to prototype work. In some cases it can boil down to one set of soft jaws versus two (depending on how you have designed things) and whether you need to open the door once or twice to finish a part.
For your turning work do think you'll need a steady rest or tail stock ?

Intrigued by low tolerance parts that you got away with 3d printing - but I have seen robotic polymeric components printed and fitted with higher precision bearings and mechatronics. The NLX and MAZAK lathes / turning centers have very good surface finishes and sub micron roundness of parts in "easier" materials like aluminum and brass.
The NLX is a tough / rugged machine box-ed ways - good for automotive + production. If a lot of precision tapers and fiddly accurate indexing + milling I'd lean more to a mazak. Surfaces that have to reference each other very accurately on different planes - B axis mill turn can be good. (MAZAK seem to be trying to up their game on the in process part probing with higher accuracy Renishaw probes with strain gauges built in ).
I'm kinda getting a Swissmak vibe ;-) ~~~~~~~ :-/

Sounds like approaches to work holding may be critical to your applications and not distort parts. So use of collet systems, arbors / mandrels maybe important or the use of related systems from someone like Hainbuch or Forkhardt.
You may be having to make more fixtures than you anticipate so having an accurate and tough/ rugged machine can be GOOD i.e. the overkill aspect useful for making sound fixtures or a bit of hard turning maybe ? Depends what you envision / want to get into.
