Want to have some fun? Next time you need to hack-off a few excess inches from a carbon seatpost mast take a plastic mallet and see how hard you need to hit against it laying on a concrete floor to make it fail (careful, the hammer will recoil smartly). Now try the same thing with a section of your average aluminum seatpost mast.
