Industrial design for additive layer manufacturing – anything goes?

The entirely justified excitement about 3D printing and Additive Layer Manufacture (ALM) has somehow resulted in the idea that these techniques are almost entirely free of manufacturing constraints. This is based on the fact that, by building a part layer by layer, product designers don't need to worry about things like draft angles and undercuts, so any geometry is possible. All of this is true, but the conclusion that it means the end of manufacturing constraints ignores the most important one of all. Cost.
