Ah, yes. Science. That thing where going back in time to kill the scientist who discovered something guarantees that no one else will ever think of the same concept.

Thomas Malthus was not a scientist, but an economist and a cleric.

Science convergers on the same truth. It's the stupid that creates uniquely dumb outcomes. If you want to change the world by time travel, do not kill the scientist, kill the fool.
