true. further it would be uneconomic to extract spider venom at scale from spiders. so the next step would be to figure out how to create synthetic analogs of the enzymes in spider venom. that would enable them to create the enzymes at scale economically.

whales in the 19th century were used for lamp oil until john d rockefeller figured out how extract oil from the ground and refine it economically at scale.

same principle as spiders.

LOL, I have a history with spiders, so I am not inclined to allow them to live in my eyesight, but I am softening on that.
