So The companies like DuPont that have stopped spending money on it need a lab mistake to beat the fiber itself. Then they have to hope that fiber can be made cheaper than mundane silk.
So now think on why it is that we have silk worms at all.
We know what regular silk is and we can easily produce the protein in goats or ecoli.
We can make vats full of the stuff and they can spin it into a fiber that is just about the same strength as worm silk.
Why havent they?
Silk worms are obsolete for mundane silk. But nobody is trying to make silk in a lab. That is because producing it at the cost of worms cant be beat.
If they cant make mundane silk cheaper they wont make spidersilk either.
Maybe when the Star Trek replicator is invented we will have a problem but for now any company trying to make fiber from goo is going bankrupt.
You cant beat the power of the worm.
