The latter. Though you can pack rhombic dodecahedrons with 100% efficiency I doubt you could get them to grow that way at an industrial scale. https://en.wikip

- lazide 3y agoDepends on the economic value - we grow monocrystaline silicon at large scale now, for instance.
- rtkwe 3y agoSilicon has an inherently cubic crystalline structure and is way less reactive compared to lithium both of which help a lot. Maybe we could figure out monocrystalline lithium but the structure is a lot less forgiving.
