Since I am a dinosaur and remember what was going on then ( one of
many on this list I am sure )
1) There was no clue that what we have today would develop.
2) General solutions to what were then abstract problems caused a lot
of "open" things to be thrown around.
And what does this "appeal to the ancient wisdom" have to do with
technology and business today anyway?
