Same bet as .extrusion: a hyper-narrow industrial B2B noun whose entire addressable registrant base is the handful of manufacturers and distributors inside one manufacturing niche, with no consumer search pull to carry it.
Like .extrusion it is a technical-discipline noun that firms already suffix onto their own trading names (Acme Engineering / Acme Extrusions), so the bet is that operating companies will re-root their primary identity on the craft word rather than their brand.
Same species of word (an industrial process/sector generic sold to trade firms) but it bets on a mass trade with millions of potential registrants, whereas .extrusion bets on a few thousand specialists, so the underlying economics of the bet are different.
