I wonder if they really think they’re going to reproduce the stonework with individual craftsmen.

CNC programs and machinery are going to be much more efficient.

I'm pretty sure they'll use both.

Only slightly related, but this reminded me of the time when there was a huge restoration at the Mission San Xavier del Bac. There is a local, residential couple who were trained in restoration (in Spain; the wife is Spanish), but there were also many other restorers who were involved. It was a truly international event.
