The dome construction is a nightmare; it will never become commonplace unless they figure out how to do it ‘3D printed’ and, more importantly, I question the structure’s strength against a tornado’s wind shear and projectile debris.

I had a better idea over 30 years ago. It’s interesting that no one else has come up with it.
