I think it’s kind of beautiful that we all have our limited times to make an impact. We bring our perspectives and use our context to try to move civilization to a more optimal place. Then once we’ve spent all our ideas our perspectives can afford, we give way to the next group of minds. Like an old oak falling under the weight of snow opens room in the canopy for new growth and the decomposing wood provides nutrients for saplings; the absence of old arguments invite new ideas and the theory we leave gives the building blocks.
