it dosnt mattere if it started from something unscintific
the whole point was that is before scence as we know it today was developed so its going to come form somthing whcih isnt scince. that dosnt mean we should still use the old method. a modern rifle evolved from an old fansioned muskit thats not an argument for going back to msukits

Yeah, it kinda does matter.
If it didn't start somewhere, it wouldn't have grown into what it is.
A modern rifle evolved from people throwing rocks. Personally I don't like either option but people still throw rocks and shoot each other.
Not that this is even vaguely related to my above argument. I think you've just got a chip on your shoulder.

ok it is related heres why
i accept that it was good that people expserimented before scintific reasoning in a non scintfic way. but now that we have scince we should go back to doing things in the less productive way much like my example with the rifel please dont restate teh fact that it started chemesry, i havent argued that it wasnt neccasry only that it is npo longer neccsary

I don't think you can establish that it's no longer necessary
Discoveries will always be made by dumb luck, by people just playing around, by people doing things that they don't completely understand.
Fantastic discoveries, not just post-it notes or twisties. Humankind advances because we use our inquisitive minds. It's a good thing and it should be encouraged.
