machining metal parts to tight tolerances when they're only a millimeter wide is awfully expensive.
But making tiny things with lithography is really cheap (in volume).
The middle ground is what one needs for a 10 watt vapor compression pump. And to my knowledge nobody has built a 1 watt pump with lithography - although an array of electrostatic scroll compressors does look like it could work.
