	If the lack of hard interlocking interfaces remain in a future atomically precise microscale design that is if it is still held together just through magneto- or electrostatic interaction the "materials" tensile strength may lie way below the one of the base material (possibly below the tensile strength of some [[utility fog]]s). This may raise increased concerns of rub-off and spill (the same problem as with [[microcomponents]] that are just held together by Van der ~~Walls~~ forces. -- See: [[mobility prevention guideline]]		If the lack of hard interlocking interfaces remain in a future atomically precise microscale design that is if it is still held together just through magneto- or electrostatic interaction the "materials" tensile strength may lie way below the one of the base material (possibly below the tensile strength of some [[utility fog]]s).
