Oh yes, of course. I only referred to the notation. Additive manufacturing adds tons of issues on top of the basic problem of getting the alloy to crystallise in the right form (which we’ve had to deal with for millennia).
But the field is developing rapidly and we are already talking about complex concentrated superalloys. There are spectacular advances happening right now at every level of alloy development. The fact that additive manufacturing is far out of equilibrium is a problem for now, but this could become an advantage instead with the right alloys.
