You mean to say we didn't need to fight the Korean War for tungsten? :-) That was an article of faith among Progressives in the past that Bernie Sanders rejected in Vermont. Now he calls himself a progressive and runs as a socialist while European Socialists tell him his views of socialism are a crock. :-)
Life is so confusing.
Cobalt was widely used in higher grade glass, dinnerware and pottery for its bright blue color while poisoning workers.
The newer (and greatly inferior) cobalt blue reproductions from Asia may no longer poison workers but sure don't help the price and popularity of vintage pieces.
Wouldn't the goo eventually obsolete both tungsten and cobalt in computing and data storage?
