Quenching in water is never a good idea for a blade and Japanese bladesmiths looked for many other ways to to temper their blades because they knew it wasn't good. Lack of resources and attempting to get metallurgical know how led to many of their techniques. Don't get me wrong they did amazing things with what they had but if they had had access to better iron/steel and modern quenching techniques and metallurgical sciences they would have done things differently. Tradition plays a extremely important part in Japanese culture but you really, really wouldn't want to use a sword made in the "traditional" manner with "traditional" materials. They were extremely brittle in no small part to poor quality iron/steel and tempering like is demonstrated in this^.

Lack of necessary oxygen. However, if we could increase the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere we would be able to see all kinds of neat things. Beings that rely on exoskeletons would be able to grow much, much, larger.

Since when do teachers have to allow students to watch a movie? Movies were always something special when I was in school. If I was that teacher that class would never watch a movie. I'd even consider introducing a grade curve. Base it on the lowest score and grade down. Had a math teacher that would do that if students begged for a grading curve

My thought, when I saw this, was that they were worried Al's circle would get damaged. There's no saving him if that happens.. You can fill him with holes as long as you don't damage that circle.
