Hmm. There’s a lot of “citation needed” surrounding this. From the quick look at it, this page has a smell of Mr. Miller himself (or one of his fans) doing some heavy editing of this page.
Would be conclusive of "vain attempts to claim priority" if we can track down a precursor to this visual structure in another prior medium.
I’m looking at it slightly differently, but I’m not officially a historian. :·) 1. It’s okay to claim you were the first, but if your first is completely disconnected from the mainstream later incarnation (iPod? Mac OS?), then it’s a slightly different story.
(Unsure if that’s the case here.)
2. I am not sure if you get to call something “Miller columns” if no one else calls it that, even if you were first, and even if your first inspired the rest.
I think this page should be called “column view,” and it’s now needlessly confusing. But this is all my personal, possibly undereducated opinion. :·)
That indeed I think was the gist of Goethe's quote: "We should all share in the excitement of discovery without vain attempts to claim priority."
