Bonus question: What is an invention that was really important and there is no telling how long we would have to wait for it to appear had it not been discovered by the one credited with it?

    Time and “order” are very unimportant with discoveries.

    Im pretty sure historians would disagree with this statement.

      What I mean is that there’s no “correct order” in discoveries except if one is needed for the other. Horse riding and the wheel are not linked.
