Those applications generally haven't been focused on putting ridiculous horsepower in a tiny format and then running a highly variable load while dissipating heat. For example Axial flux motors are still very much being developed with

Even moving somewhere else within the same city is a lot less hassle if you are less concerned with immediately having the work part of the equation figured out. I am not a young graduate, uprooting now would be a big deal for various reaso
