I like this and agree:

re. associating with something like Edison does the light bulb, I ageee there's probably a lot to that. In ny presentation above I demonstrate what historians unanimously agree on that Vannevar was the single most pivotal individual to set the conditions for justifying initiating the Manhattan Project. Oppenheimer gets the popular credit, but Vannevar was kicking off the feasibility studies for fissile chain reactions long before Oppenheimer enters the picture.
But people don't want to be associated with such a destructive invention like they do the light bulb, right? So any would-be propagators of their impact narrative have to wrestle with that moral quandary as well..
