I'll go, but you'll have to provide the plane ticket to Amsterdam.

Seems like it will take weeks to print a bridge that could have been prefabbed offsite and erected in a day with a crane.

A proof of concept, but not (yet) an advancement in efficiency or cost savings.

Prefabbing and shipping would take weeks, building place is usually more efficient. And building in place with robots that can work 24/7 and don’t get sick, drunk or stupid is more efficient.
