Personally I think they should emphasize the manual labor requirements. One of the strongest criticisms of 3D-printed and prefab housing technology is that it reduces demand for low-skilled labor.

Free or reduced cost housing is great, but to the extent it comes at the expense of a sustainable labor economy, then it's problematic.
