    Forgot that one. You may have discovered the head of the nail.

    Wonder why the Ti/Alu cylinder thing is no longer a thing. Safety issue?

    Both metals are still being used, titanium is rare as it is expensive and a little more challenging to machine.
    People who have been there focus on the fundamentals. People who sit at keyboards all day focus on the trivial and inane.
