	~~It is still very flexible in terms of stretchability / bendability / strainabbility before breaking <br>~~		See page: [[A better intuition for diamondoid nanomachinery than jelly]]
	~~but a better intuition would probably be some sort of hyper-spring-steel (way stiffer than actual spring-steel) <br>~~
	~~in an environment with super-magnets (way stronger than magnets can physically be) (wihch represent the [[Van der Waals force]]s). <br>~~

	~~Attractive forces are only 1/100 of the internal material forces so one needs to look closely for deformations from them. <br>~~

	~~Attractive forces can accelerate parts to extremely high speeds though. If not counteracted. <br>~~
	~~So better not let go of anything or else parts snap together at the speed of bullets which is then <br>~~
	~~really making them behave like jelly. When looking at the action via slow motion footage that is. <br>~~
	~~Such brutal snapping generates a lot of heat so is usually to avoid in a dense active machinery system. <br>~~
	~~Occasional snaps sparse in either space or spare in time (or sparse in both) are ok though. <br>~~

	~~'''Only thing where high deformations >1% (but not free wobbling jelly wiggles) may be more regularly visible''' <br>~~
	~~is in the '''transmission of very high (giant) forces (giant for the scale).''' <br>~~
	~~That is: In cases where both high power is needed and <br>~~
	~~heterogeneous mechanical nanoscale transmission is needed (no batching to a larger scale bundle). <br>~~
