Nah, it's just MC thinking is questionable or just being pragmatic mindset about "Gold is best, other is disposable".I still have no idea what is the point of the whole gold scene. Was it to once again portray the MC as an absolute dumbass?
To think of it, he was swindled by the master, by the weapon salesman. All of his success in developing his territory was due to his AI assistant. The guy is only good at failing upwards.
Near as I can tell, the gold scene was to establish that to him all the more “valuable” resources should be used for practical things and only gold should be used for wealthI still have no idea what is the point of the whole gold scene. Was it to once again portray the MC as an absolute dumbass?

Yes but planning to make them as a currency in his land is more problematic. It could potentially lead to economic drop, lesser trades, etc. since other lands see other minerals as more precious than gold like mythril (which can be more precious irl). Other than that, the current state of the MC is annoying to bear. His views are too small. Imagine developing your land just to steal from them, it's very narrow-minded.So I assume there must be some other material that's a better conductor? Because gold IS really useful.
