Egyptian science promised an entity to watch over the people forever in exchange to helping the (Gods) (Neters) (Natures) build a pyramid today. Egyptian science didn't expect people to take anything on faith. It rewarded invention by awarding pyramid jobs to people from your city in perpetuity. For instance the guy who discovered that natron added to the geyser caused an eruption was from Chemmis so all future jobs concerning "Chemmistry" were awarded to people from this city.
In a nutshell, you are saying all cars SHOULD be made in Detroit?
Very interesting, btw.
Well...
...If we did it like the Egyptians then anyone who helped the Gods illuminate the car would be from Port Huron where Edison grew up. Anyone who worked assembly would be from Detroit. In fact the car has so many inventors there might be more cities represented than the number of car factories or machines to make them.
