How great an idea is it?
Let's put this great idea into the context of great ideas. The Internet was a great idea, but this is a far better idea than the Internet. Recorded music was a great idea, but this is a far better idea than recorded music. Quantum mechanics was a great idea, but this is a far better idea than quantum mechanics.
How about the bicycle? Pizza? Written language?
Great ideas all, but this idea far transcends them.
