I like kicking quantum computing, especially when products tout resistance to it as if the technology is about to become practical, but error correction with a constant complexity could bring the problem to the realm of theoretically surmountable.

I had no idea about the c^3 conjencture and how the optimal way to create a classical error correcting code was found not long ago.
