gollark: According to Wikipedia, tin has 10 stable isotopes, so you could probably get it to one, um, dectet per atom that way.
gollark: It is probably also true that in both instances of "rebuild from practically nothing" you lose a lot, but in the eldræverse case that losing a lot would still put them substantially above us.
gollark: Anyway, in the middle of that graph you get complex interdependent highly globalised societies like ours, except with no convenient shortcut to bootstrapping your technology again.
gollark: I'm talking about maintaining technology level, not exactly the entire society.
