I would check these premises. It was thought that harmony was universal until it was discovered that it wasn't. Then we thought octaves were universal, but apparently there were some tribes that didn't make the association. There's a lot that we're born into, but not necessarily born with.
An example of fact exhaustion is canons. They've been done a while, but there's been a lot of music made since when.
