OK, the market will not provide real Cuban mahogany in our lifetimes, but if
the demand is there, it will provide some other material that will fill that

Right. It's nonsense to say that the market will provide if the demand is there.
What the market does is to manipulate the demand. The market says "You don't
*really* want *that*. Here's what you *really* want."

As far as a material that comes close to Cuban mahogany "in all but some very
small esthetic differences", you're dreaming. There's nothing on Earth that's
close. I expect there will be about the time someone discovers the philosopher's
stone.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."
