What I mean is that they are not accessible to the public, like plastic surgery was only for the deficient at first, is is now available to augment your body, innovated. ## Innovation comes sooner or later Even if [[Einstein]] wasn't born, special & general [[Relativity|relativity]] would have been discovered.
