OCD I guess, my new meds cause that. I see certain things and have to act on it. In this case explain basic material science cause it screams "wrong" to me.

Like when you heat up steel you could end up with Cementite, Austenite, or Ferrite rather than what you started with. This would simply bring out other properties. Depending on how its done you could make it tougher and then you'd be screwed.
