They are not actually serious about this, right?
I feel if that directly acknowledging Klapötke of all people is basically a thinly veiled concession that watever you synthesized is too explosive to even be used as an explosive. As seems to be the case here.
Is there even a remotely possibility for this to be used in any practical application?
Noneteless, impressive paper, and getting that abstract into Nature is basically an achievement on its own already.
