Bingo. Plus 90% of silver's industrial use is due to its electrical and electronics fitting properties. Diamond is a strong electric insulator, thus no match.
Yes, for heat conduction, but that's been known and tried for decades already, but price/perf numbers in most applications have been abysmal cf silver based heat transfer compounds.

Yep. Also, silver is critical for high end mirrors. These are critical for manufacturing at the micro scale. lithography, projectors, lasers.
