Hanging out by a lava waterfall in Minecraft. Posing with my cool Netherite sword

The latest snapshot for 1.17 saw the addition of pointed dripstone, a block forming stalactites and stalagmites. What the stalactites do is that they allow any water or lava above them to drip into a cauldron, filling it. This allows the production and farming of infinite lava. This could be useful if you want a lot of lava, but: 1. You can get a lot of lava from the nether already. The nether has     thousands of thousands of blocks of lava, probably more than you could ever  want. If you find it dangerous to farm lava with buckets in the nether, then you possibly might need a lava farm like this. 2. It’s very slow to farm. It takes a long time for the lava to slowly drip and fill up the cauldrons, and for some speed you could use a lot of cauldrons in a field, obtain a crap ton of pointed dripstone, fill a pool of lava above the dripstone and make a humongous lava farm, rather than a smaller one. Then again, if you could get the lava you need for the farm from, most likely the nether,you probably don’t need the farm. It is true that the farm is an easy and convenient way of getting a lot of lava very fast, but is it worth it? Do you need this much lava? I would advice building such a farm unless you need a lot of lava very fast and hate the nether.
