You have a post about small nanobots being unlikely, but do you have similar opinions about macroscopic nanoassemblers? Non-microscopic ones could have a vacuum and lower temperatures inside, etc.
What can you do with macroscopic nanoassemblers? Usually for a nanostructure to have an effect on human scales, you need a lot of it. If the assemblers are big and expensive, you wont get a lot of it.
Different things have different optimal scales. In practice, lithography machines + molds + 3d printers + etc are better ways to make fine detail than controlling lots of tiny robotic arms. Big robotic arms are more cost-effective than small ones.
