Alchemy has nothing to do with actual elemental transmutation you normy, that is just a laypersons interpretation of the spiritual and nuanced nature of the art.

It's a hypothetical question edgy cunt.
If stories of Nicolas Flamel and the Count of St. Germain are any indication, people would know but nobody would take the stories seriously.
Obviously letting out the secret would be bad, while a lot of good could come with keeping the secret. Supposedly, Flamel donated a lot to charity.
