Weren't these people rather privileged? Just being able to draw on paper was a big thing back then iirc.
But yeah, if you have just 20% or even 10% free time, if it's bugging you enough you'll keep thinking about it.
Now, having the means to realize that is a whole different story.
Ideas are aplenty, even among people with the actual skills to execute them, but the social and monetary capital is lacking.
Can't do shit without help and money.
