A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Nope. Not at all. Steel weapons are superior to bronze in every way.
The comparison was iron and bronze. Not steel and bronze.
There was never a time when iron was used in a major way until they figured out how to make steel. So technically it was always the steel age, not the iron age.
And?
... and steel was brought up.
But not in the context of a comparison with bronze. Nobody made the claim that Bronze was as strong as Steel.
Bronze is better at making musical instruments, and who doesn't need a trumpet or a tuba nowadays?
