do you figure something like Glowforge's air filter will sufficiently eliminate the need for outdoor ventilation?
they sell it like it's basically as good as outdoor ventilation, but I'm skeptical.

I've not used it, and there's not much information provided on the filter, but I suspect it's sufficient for light use. Keep in mind you'll have to replace filters regularly. My makerspace had two 40W 12"x24" laser cutters that some days were kept in nearly continuous rotation. They were the most popular tool by far. We now have six, so it's less of an issue, but external ventilation saves a lot of hassle here.
