I was actually going to post a follow-up saying something similar (the essence being that builders make FXML less self-documenting), but you beat me to it.  :-)

I don't have a problem using builders in this capacity when necessary, and it's nice to have as an option - but I agree that adhering to bean patterns is definitely preferable when possible.
