Interesting. In a way, it's very similar to permaculture design principles, which claim heritage from African agriculture. Curious to hear how it works.

It hasn't escaped me that generatively designed watch plates might look pretty damn cool... and are the sort of thing you can have only if you're 3d-printing wax for bronze castings, as opposed to machining the things on a VMC. I suspect you'd still need to do boring on a VMC but you could get some really cool lookin' movements that way. Stay tuned, I guess?
