    I think including non-synthetic gems is a copout, since it’s not the scarcity of the material itself, but the scarcity of the material when it’s given a particular laser engraving saying it’s natural and flawless.

    Something about not being a fungible commodity, unlike tritium, where one gram of that particular chemical is interchangeable with any other of the same purity.
