"I think part of the reason for this is that the development of technology is iterative and combinatorial. That is, technology advances when things we discover get combined with already existing things to make things that didn’t exist before, rinse and repeat. The people who built computers before we had real-time GPS could simply not have imagined the changes that would occur once we discovered real-time GPS and combined it with the already existing computer technology."
