here is the thing about steel. and this is a lesson i have learned the hard way. every so often you will decide a grade of steel is your favorite grade of steel. sometimes it's a superalloy and sometimes it's just something regular that you can buy at any vendor ever. and you will put that grade of steel in everything and think your life is hunky dory. and then suddenly someone will discover that your pet grade of steel has some obscure esoteric little problem with it that fucks up your whole day [ie it's way more brittle than you expected, or it becomes magnetic when welded. etc.]. so you freak out and run crying into the arms of another grade of steel, and this one is like shhhh baby don't worry you can trust me i'll never betray you like that. but believe me. they all will. every last one of them.
