To what extent is molecular manufacturing counterintuitive and underappreciated in a way that causes underestimation of its importance? What is the performance and potential of diamondoid machine-phase chemical manufacturing and products? What is the performance and potential of biological programmable manufacturing and products? What is the performance and potential of nucleic acid manufacturing and products? What other chemistries and options should be studied? What applicable sensing, manipulation, and fabrication tools exist? What will be required to develop diamondoid machine-phase chemical manufacturing and products? What will be required to develop biological programmable manufacturing and products? What will be required to develop nucleic acid manufacturing and products? How rapidly will the cost of development decrease? How could an effective development program be structured? What is the probable capability of the manufacturing system? How capable will the products be? What will the products cost? How rapidly could products be designed? Which of today's products will the system make more accessible or cheaper? What new products will the system make accessible? What impact will the system have on production and distribution? What effect will molecular manufacturing have on military and government capability and planning, considering the implications of arms races and unbalanced development? What effect will this have on macro- and microeconomics? How can proliferation and use of nanofactories and their products be limited? What effect will this have on policing? What beneficial or desirable effects could this have? What effect could this have on civil rights and liberties? What are the disaster/disruption scenarios? What effect could this have on geopolitics? What policies toward development of molecular manufacturing does all this suggest? What policies toward administration of molecular manufacturing does all this suggest? How can appropriate policy be made and implemented?
