Yeah but ... What would be even better would be to design the automation such that it's scale free, at least a little bit. I'm thinking something like this:https://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/advs.202409330The simply term "automation" could imply VERY large machines, like 3D printers stretched over acres of land, picking and manipulating the little things. Or it could imply a collection of a few large machines, many meso machines, and lots of micro or pico machines all orchestrated to metabolize old panels and regrow new ones. *Then* it would look more sustainable to me.
