The better cut diamonds gyger, microline etc. and the difficulty in assembling them. Using Boron as opposed to Aluminum for the cantilever etc., Hand assemble vs machine.

The interesting point of Flavio's article is that it appears that the difference between the micro line , "fine line", "stereohedron", VdH, Shibata etc and the spherical and elliptical is the big one. With the more complicated cuts having more vertical surface area.
