While I still disagree with your interpretation of that post, I don’t want to argue over the meaning of a post from that blog. There are actual books written about the history of titanium. I’m probably as familiar with it as the author of Construction Physics, and saying A-12-related programs were necessary for development of titanium usage is just wrong. People who care about that and don’t trust my conclusion should go look up good sources on their own, more-extensive ones.
