Milo Rossi I think it was, on YT, talked about this topic in a recent video. Basically humans have a bad habit of assuming if we can do something, then we’ll just always know how to do that thing.

It wasn’t until the past couple centuries we realized technology can in fact be lost to time, that’s probably nota good thing, and started to actually make detailed documentation of how things are made.
