This gets to the core of our disagreement. I don't believe second order effects (i.e. things that involve another human decision maker using your creation) to be knowable in the general case. The exception being if you specifically advertise it for that purpose or similarity to existing tools makes it obvious.
In the case of a scientist - the ultimate effects of their discovery will always be second order as they are not the engineers applying the science.
