The "Humbird TEA" is, first and foremost, a stunt. It's chemical-engineering performance art. A thorough and well-reasoned analysis of an absolutely banana-pants idea. The technical issues highlighted within (and brought to light by The Counter) are the products of a well-honed bullshit detector. Sit with them for long enough, and you can hone one too.

Lol I don't know if that version is any easier to follow. :)

Yes, biofuels offer the most direct lesson on the challenges incurred upon scale-up of biotech/fermentation. Cultured meat scale-up may yet fail for the same or similar reasons. The opportunity, as I see it, is mostly emotional. We tend to care a lot more about what goes in the mouth vs what goes in the car. This could bring a new shade of innovation to the field that biofuels couldn’t muster.

It certainly has fewer pages, can't argue with that.

It’s Halloween. Go watch “The Fly” (1986), there’s a scene relevant to this discussion.
