Very crude conceptual example of part of an MMCN. Red may represent proteins, Blue dots may represent binding sites/active sites. Dark grey blocks and grid of black may represent bigger structures (maybe structural DNA nanotechnology). Yellow way represent a gold contact on a chip for electrostatic interaction. White outline: A hinge. ... Moe details on page: Modular molecular composite nanosystem.
Conceptual sketch illustrating the idea of an "early diamondoid nanosystem pixel" or "early replicative pixel" for short. More details on page: Early diamondoid nanosystem pixel (direct path).

This "mixed path" is about a scenario wherein the incremental path and the direct path eventually at some point intermingle
thereby "cross-pollinating" which then helps along accelerating on the pathway to advanced productive nanosystems.

Mixed technology along the pathway, not necessarily mixed in the target technology

Note that taking this pathway does not mean that all far term target systems will be hybrid.
Taking this pathway rather means that there will be more options for bio-compatible operation in advanced systems (nanomedicine).
High performance systems (like e.g. in rocket engines or so) will still need to avoid all thermally fragile components.
Meaning likely no foldamers but only crystolecules. See: Consistent design for external limiting factors

Hard in soft – crystolecules in foldamer systems

  • Integration of solution phase mechanosynthesis in foldamer systems
  • Integration of crystolecules (possibly produced in vacuum) into solution phase systems

Combining strengths & compensating for weaknesses

This option may be especially likely as it
combines the different pathway approaches in a way that
combines their strengths and compensates for their weaknesses.

Combining strengths:
Incremental paths strength at scaling to larger system complexities (incremental).
Direct paths strength at introduction of total positional control towards positional atomic precision.

Compensating for weaknesses:
Incremental paths challenge at introduction of total positional control towards positional atomic precision
Direct paths challenge at scaling to larger system complexities (direct).

Soft in hard – foldamers in crystolecule systems

  • Integration of self assembled foldamer things into crystolecular systems.
