TBH , I think this will have more impacts for materials science than organic chemistry . Incorporating silicon into molecules via chemical routes isn ' t terribly difficult . However , if you could use this process to make bulk silicon carbide or a precursor thereto then you could make some pretty neat materials without the normal headaches of SiC fabrication . <| sep |> I feel your pain . I hate jacking off to this . <| sep |> Im inclined to agree , given the young history of the current wizarding community in America . Maybe they stuck to what they know or animals they have because it ' s still mostly unexplored territory and therefore priori incatatum was more common earlier on ? Maybe later it ' ll be more rare as it ought to be ? I guess at the same time I figure by the 1920 s it ' d be more sprawled out or something in terms of animal diversity and wand makers . Idk .
