      Yeah, total nonsense, they’re just trying to pretend it’s some magical proprietary blend, but that’s not how stainless steel works. They claim it has superior properties to 304 but from independent testing, it’s inferior if any different. The only apparent mechanical advantages it has are when compared to a much thinner panel, which is a nonsense comparison.

      The entire point of stainless steel (note that it isn’t called rustless steel) is that you can wash rust off of its surface.

      What’s kinda funny is that there was this era of marketing where everything was called some version of The eXXtreme MaXX PowerBlast eXXtra and Elon Musk definitely lived through this and as a 30-something year old man, no less.

      While the rest of the world moved on from this phase obviously he never quite managed to.

        It was called Generation X. He is one. I am actually too, but windows XP put me off of X modifiers for good.
