I would hope that the customer would already know that steel is an alloy, but maybe I’m giving the general populous too much credit. So if you’re advocating that we do away with the term alloy all together, regardless of if it refers to steel, aluminum, titanium, magnesium or chromoly (yes, I know it’s a type of steel); yes, I agree with you.
