That may be quite true but my point is that they will find a way around this.
Rare earths are required for many electronics - but that is based on what is known NOW. In the future, rare earths (which aren't really that rare) may be supplanted by other materials (perhaps synthetics).
Knowledge is increasing all the time and on every front. I would never make prognostications based on current conditions.
