Differential vector control

This blog has mentioned Stoke Space twice; first on reusing roggets, which needn't detain us. Four months ago we heard about their methane burner. This last one, Stoke say, may be made lightweight enough they can do without gimbaling. "The best part is no part" as Elon taught them.

I'd not known they'd needed the differential thrust vector control in the first place. Well I suppose that's why we blog, to track our learning-process.

Are they considering detonation (rotary or not)? Or, since all the engines need to be same-as-possible: 3D printing?
