Screw the materiel, bag the data!
I mean… OK, so I could go all SCIFI OTT on this one but that’s not what I’m trying to do.
Simulations, now and later, are and will be (ever more) valuable.
Until, of course, you can just print one of the things.
But alas all of this speculation is made moot by plain, old, boring, old reality.
Pff.
