1·2 years agoNo, that is just a listing of all the diffrent explanations I have heard. I suspect they all play a role to a greater or lesser degree. My personal idea is that slavery was the thing. It would never be profitable to spend the money to invent a labor saving device when there was effectively infinite cheap labor. They didn’t have the metallurgy to create high quality machine parts and the industrial design and manufacture ideas were invented for a long time yet. Their mechanical engineering was better than ours till like the 1900s. So it was all bespoke work. All expensive and kidna delicate. So you wouldn’t want to pay the expense of a labor saving device when you could just buy a few gauls for the money.
In the way of capitlaism stifling blue sky innovation feudal lords had to be even worse.

21·2 years agoMy understanding is that it required four parts. Metallurgy, precision engineering, scientific method, the history of us trying all the wrong ways before.
Like, the Roman’s had the steam engine they just couldn’t make reliable high quality parts. Further they didn’t know a rational economy was something they should have or could have wanted.
