What I originally said was there's no metal shortage, only the price of metal. We'll be mining the solar system long before we run out of metal on earth. For aluminum, for instance, there's an insane amount in the Earth's crust.

Supply and demand informs price. Not the other way around. That's why your argument makes no sense.
"We can't have a metal shortage because there's lots of metal in space" is not the most coherent argument I've heard today...
