Forgemetal - morphing powder

I heard a response from me was requested, so I responded
Edit: OK fine i'll give a real response.
It seems like it's kind of the opposite of CRMC? CRMC gets stronger under pressure, this gets weaker. I'm not opposed to that or anything, but what what uses would this have? CRMC was an attempt to assist with containing fusion. The next version of TPT adds some elements that don't necessarily fill any use cases. Maybe new elements don't always have to be extremely useful to be added.
Also, is forgemetal a real thing? What does it do IRL?Edited 2 times by jacob1. Last: 15th May 2017 -
I'm not the OP or anything but what I think it is:
"forgemetal" presumably represents the idea of shaping metal with a hammer, but in such a way that works with TPT (using pressure to turn it into a powder so it can move and change shape, then turning back to solid when the pressure is gone). Heating it up makes it softer, like with real metals. I'd guess the formula would be something like pressure required = x - (temp-y) , basically relating the pressure to the temperature.
If I'm wrong about any of this, feel free to correct me, since it's not my suggestion.As for uses... Radiation-sensitive wires might be fun to play with? Having solids that get dented by impacts but not completely disentegrated? I'm sure the community will think of something

@coryman is right, it was the general idea, shaping stuff with pressure :)

Thanks! I'm just asking for an answer - will it be implemented?

Actually, I don't know. I'm not a developer. :v
