Yep the only reason modern medicine went the antibiotic route instead of the bacteriophage route was the logistical and clinical challenges in stocking 100 treatments for an infection instead of 1 (or thousands instead of dozens) but now that we can print them on demand, you just have to show the AI an infectious agent or tumor cell and it can just crank out a custom virus that kills it specifically. Won’t help with infectious prions or viruses but opens the door to new treatments for those too

We’re slowly but surely making each of the Star Trek technologies. Some of them like the teleporters with a “Heisenberg compensator” component are a little out there of course!
