And while we have autonomous robot factories (being wasted uselessly on asteroids or whatever), we might as well, you know, cut the costs of manufactured goods by six orders of magnitude, bring about the end of economics, and maybe build some free infrastructure while we're there. Like desalination plants, but powerful enough to fill artificial rivers the size of Niles.
