[volt-nuts] PCBs with ceramic substrates

Moin,

I recently wondered, why people around voltage metrology hardly
talk about ceramic substrates (Al2O3, AlN, ...) for PCBs.
They have surface resistivity that is as high as PTFE, have
higher thermal conductivity, lower thermal expansion (AlN is
even pretty close to Si). So, why then does it hardly ever get
mentioned? Is it the cost of those? Or is there something I am
missing?
