Uh, it's called "reality" my friend, try it.

You can't "invent" your way out of fundamental physical limits.

A Boeing 747 looks the same in 1969 as it does today. It still flies over the Atlantic in six hours burning kerosene in turbofan engines.

Sure, you can get a few percent here, a few percent there, but do you think suddenly we'll have warp drive?

Come on. Do you know how empty and huge space is?

Nope, you're right. We know everything there is to ever know and nothing will ever change. We've peaked as a species, there is literally nowhere else to go from here.

Oh OK, the only logical counterpoint is we're going to space.

Wheeee!!! Dibs on Neptune!
