    it could not have happened and would not have happened, for essentially economic reasons.

    The interesting alternative histories are ones that turn on a single fortuitous event.

    You said it couldn’t happen, then said that there are ways it could have happened.

    Also, if you don’t want to be part of the discussion, you are free to stay out. other people are participating and enjoying themselves.

      In future then I’ll try to remember your handy advice and not say anything that might challenge anyone’s views or otherwise spoil your enjoyment. Cheers.

        You didn’t challenge anyone to improve themselves. You tried to impose your ideas on other people. There’s a difference.

        Cheers.
