Conjecture

Exponential progress comes from many teams running competing attempts, not from one team learning faster. Hidalgo explains Moore's law as learning curves stacking: each team's curve flattens and is overtaken by another team's new design, with Silicon Valley, Paris and Moscow all attempting the same problems. A single team reaches Thurstone's ceiling. Breaking it takes many independent attempts whose successes land in one shared record.

    The industry moved faster than any team, not along a single learning curve, but along competing curves.
