@KJ: We're talking about humans fresh off the slate, you know. As in, the discovery of the wheel would have been recent at best, assuming that Dust didn't simply birth them with basic knowledge like that on them. Moreover, those calculations are not only of the current day, but they're in the real world. You remember that one, right? It's the one that doesn't have magic-like crystals, soul powers, transforming weapons, robot guards, human-animal-hybrid-things, near-omnipresent cameras (I'm talking impossible angles, here), and, oh yeah, soulless monsters trying to destroy humanity. Do note that such differences make calculations based in one irrelevant to the other.

@non: If your argument is "humans are old so the truth is lost", then I see no possible counter-argument I can make other than pointing out that you are essentially grasping at straws in the hopes that one of them will carry the pile.
