These methods, including oxyfuel, waterjets, or laser cuts, were either too expensive, too imprecise, or limited in their ability to cut different types of metals. Depending on the type of metal you needed, you may have been forced to pay a premium for the technology to cut it to the shape you wanted, or you may not be able to get a professional, precise cut for your project.
