PSA: That new stone tool find is not as groundbreaking as they say

I mean, everyone's acting like it changes everything, but we've seen similar stuff before. Maybe it's just me, but calling it a 'breakthrough' feels like hype over real science.

Wait, what if the dating method itself is off?

These big claims come out every few years in archaeology. It often turns out to be a smaller step forward, not a huge leap. The real proof will be in what other experts find when they look at it.

Saw a science write up that basically said the same thing. Felt like they were just rehashing the same debate with slightly newer rocks.
