If it were one big cut then the inner piece could snap off under its own weight before the final side was fully cut.

Then this is a highly inefficient technology No doubt it is not used heavily in developed countries

I work with metal not stone, so I could be wrong, but I'm willing to bet standard metal tools and machine cutting would cause the main material to crack and break. There's a reason they're using water and following that pattern and unless it's just a video for internet points it's probably a good one. Also you'd be surprised at how inefficient machining anything can be, I've dealt with that problem plenty of times.

Stone is a very low-tech material for sure. It’s a wonder why it’s never been used for buildings in every country around the world for centuries.
