It depends; if a company can use this to make them stupid cheap, then selling them stupid cheap to undercut all their competitors could still make them more money than keeping the price the same and pocketing the saved production costs.
Diamond saw blades are about to get cheaper

I love the Jargon File
Tobacco tends to contain high levels of Polonium-210, which is radioactive and decays into lead, so.
The problem with cigarettes mostly isn’t additives, it’s the above, and the fact that smoke in general is bad for you, and contains all sorts of nasty chemicals
You’re right, it’ll be both; it’s not like they need to conserve ammunition, America will always send them more
Naw, they’ll wait until everyone evacuates, and then bomb wherever they evacuated to
With some plastics, in a proper incinerator, it can be, though you best be using the resultant heat to generate electricity.

That’s not why.
Sometimes it’s due to strategic concerns in the region, sometimes it’s due to military-industrial lobbying, usually it’s both.
