This is about the minimum fraction of a [[gem-gum factory]] that is necessary for it to be able to do a full self replication.
This would be way bigger than a [[molecular assembler]] and most likely quite deeply in the macroscopic range.
They could possibly have roughly the size of a human thumb nail.

For special [[gem-gum factories]] that are specialized as after global disaster civilization re-spawning safe-points (see [[disatser proof]])
it would be useful for such pixels to be not much bigger than a thumbnail.

== pixels per factory & fractional pixels ==

A whole [[gem-gum factory]] may be:
* (1) several full pixels joined together in seamless way or
* (2) just one pixel or
* (3) a fraction of a pixel - which can suffice if the products to be made don't need all the components that would be needed in a self replication process.
Case (3) hypothetical sub cases:
* (3a) given the right data from an external data-storage it can still make the molecular mill assembly lines needed to become a full pixel.
* (3b) the molecular mill assembly lines that are present within the pixel are not capable to create the molecular mill assembly lines that are necessary to reach full pixel status. No matter which data is fed. But the necessary assembly lines for upgrading to a full pixel can still be imported by connecting it to a [[global microcomponent distribution system]].
