You say that they saw books get printed faster, so they could conceive communication getting so fast it’s instant, despite their knowledge being limited to physical material.
By the same logic, couldn’t I say we have theorized wormholes and have already seen objects (like black holes) warp time and space? Therefore maybe we can warp space to travel, rather than literally needing to go faster than light?
I think it’s easier for us now to conceive the idea that one day we could make a wormhole than it is for people with no concept of radio waves to conceive the idea of a cellphone.
