After the inventor swore he was the only person who knew how to produce the material, Tiberius had the man executed, fearing that the glass would devalue gold and silver because it might be more valuable.Sounds like something the Biden Administration might do. Or he'd at least be banned by YouTube and FB.

If this story is true (a big if) then Tiberius was a moron. Let's say it was worth more than gold and silver. Tiberius would totally control the only source of it. His wealth would be unlimited. Or he could kill the guy.
