And they will surely be successful because they already have a proven market of people who think that Facebook does targeted advertising, when its idea of targeting is to aim at anyone who's ever interacted with any content autotagged with any of the advertiser's chosen keywords, even if they laughed and blocked. As such they will probably fall for the idea that the chatbots will work, as well.

"All the time? Low overhang speeds + fan with overhang. Not tricky."

If you have printed parts with horizontal holes which were not relieved on top, and you printed them in PETG, then you either had sag, or poor layer adhesion due to insufficient temperature. That's a huge percentage of why people still print in PLA. (Another big part is that it's so much cheaper than PHA.)

I've never experienced any sort of "sagging" with PETG, and honestly don't even know what you mean by that

You've never printed anything with a horizontal hole?

To get PLA to be "tough" (impact resistant) on the order of PETG you have to load it up with PU microplastics, which makes it worse for the environment than PETG so you lose that advantage.

So what? Your average colored PLA has additives in it anyway.

And it gets rid of its stiffness

It reduces it, it doesn't eliminate it. Try actually printing some PLA+.
