Its a space of 1meter×1meterx1meter, basically a cubic meter where the matter replicator works on. (So, no replicating cars, since its too big)

How do you min-max this?

    Even if you didn’t want to use it for money, you’d have to use it for money somehow just to keep up with the inflation.

      In Stephenson’s “Diamond Age” novel, even the super poor had basic access to in-home replicators. They were limited to pretty basic items, but they were available.

      With everyone having access to basic goods, the rich people would go to villages of artisans that would hand make items to get unique, one of a kind things, as most crafts were now basically lost skills to most of society.

      Throughout the story, the tech is explored and eventually hacked to upend society by removing limits on what can be generated by the replicator.
