"Mitsubishi has been developing a turbine for 1700C inlet temperature, and it seems they are getting close."
And how long does the blade stay together? What happens to the blades if a foreign object is ingested? These blades are being made to run at T that make them very ductile, the centrifugal forces literally bend the blades.
Mitsubishi isn't the only one trying to increase the T.
"Second, it is possible to reduce compression losses in 3 spool designs." And increase the losses due to mechanical coupling and decrease reliability.
"Lastly, it's entirely possible to slap a recuperator, intercooler, and reheater on the engine if things will get too desperate. " At what weight and aerodynamic cost?
Its not my intention to contradict you, but to highlight that it's not obvious that any of these things will ever commercially.
