The point I’m making of course is that it may not be much further in the future when manmade Blackhole creation/containment becomes realty. Today it’ll be a major feat to pull off, Tomarrow ? who knows.

I’ll just tell you why I doubt that. Do you realize how much you have to squish matter until it becomes a black hole? The entire earth, for example, would need to be crushed to .7 inches in diameter. Secondly, Hawking radiation intensifies the smaller a black hole becomes. That means any singularity we create in a laboratory will instantly evaporate into pure energy the moment we create it. The recently created “black hole” you may have heard of, btw, wasn’t really a black hole. It was a pseudo black hole using the refractive property of fiber optics instead of gravity to stop light. It had no effect on matter.
