Personally, I don’t think you could get this to work in large enough scale to be usable.
Back 20 years ago, IBM spelled out IBM in, I think gold atoms using an electron microscope and some other equipment.

Creating functional molecular bonds is more difficult than just moving atoms around.

Interesting idea though

Daniel 12:4 “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased..” KJV

We have a long way to go but there is plenty of time....

Interesting article. You would have to program for a lot of factors, such as steric hindrance. That is why plants and animals hold the key today to new drugs: They can make much more complicated 3-D compounds today than a human can make in the lab.
