I thought the big application of QC after encryption, was going to be
protein folding and similar biomolecular interactions.

30 years from now quantum computers (as promoted in 2020) will still
have no impact on practical computing applications. Maybe in
cryptography, or maybe not.
Though quantum aspects in materials science could turn out to be
useful, so its impact on computing will be of a peripheral nature (in
sensors, etc.).

Back in 2017 the number 291,311 was factored by a quantum computer:
