Is this chart suggesting a high positive correlation on each side of the column? Intriguing, if so.

Good question! The chart is intriguing to me since my mind immediately began spinning off tangential thoughts likely unrelated to the actual paper content.

I had a friend who often wondered why progress was so slow. His go-to example was of a water droplet on a leaf, how it clearly magnified what was under it & yet this quality seemingly unexploited for millennia

A huge question, surely.
Clearly it has something to do with iteration and the need for intermediary steps. But only something.

Didn't JBP claim that the median person has never done a single creative endeavor in his or her life? Like write a story, compose a song, paint a painting?

His "median person" has been so thoroughly brutalized by school, it is hard to say how it would look otherwise.
But it's certainly a real phenomenon, yes. Depending on how you define creativity.

I’m glad my father was an artist, he encouraged creativity and wide ranging curiosity
I’ve tried to nurture the same in my kids, fairly successfully so far

My dad was a librarian & probably close to a communist, my Mom read Ayn Rand. After their divorce?. I was a tot so memories are dim.
It's all my fault, anyway. After I came to USA there was the Cuban Missile Crisis then JFK got shot, downhill ever since.
I'll die as world ends.

This sounds like a fairly basic fundamental attribution error. ;)
Yeah, mine divorced before I could remember. But they split responsibilities 50/50.
