    110K (-163C, -262F) is still a significant improvement in cryo temperatures required for superconductivity. It no longer requires liquid helium temperatures for things like MRI magnets. So even if this is not a “holy grail” room temperature SC- it still enables the use of much cheaper commodity cryogenics like liquid nitrogen for use in scientific and industrial superconductors.
