I am many, many years behind on the Simpsons and didn’t see that gag.

As for fab labs, I believe they’d be sufficient for most uses, but people will generally take any new tech well beyond the “sufficient” point. So that would require actively enforced prohibition of private nanofacs, an entirely different can of worms.
