Alexis@anthropy IIRC, until EXTREMELY recently the biggest hurdle was getting skin to seal around the anchors - that might explain why cybernetics in fiction are so often depicted as requiring the augmented body to rely upon medication of some form, because just think about how dangerous and painful what's effectively multiple bone-deep wounds would be to just live with.
They found the solution by, no shit, studying the texture of deer antler where it interfaces with the skin.
