        I’m not sure we could go back to the stone age, as a society. That would require collective amnesia. We can’t simply forget electricity and wavefunctions, QSARs.

        Mind you, some people are still living a stone age mindset.

        There are other options than a single choice to regress.

          The majority of the population doesn’t even know ohm’s law, what wave functions are you even talking about? Remove a bunch of engineers and the whole world will be back in stone age in no time.
