No. It's correct. I can say this having spent months in the laboratory to learn things which were already known. Who knew that precision quartz pressure gauges were called 'manometers' in the late eighteen-hundreds? I didn't, and thought I'd invented something new for a couple months in my first year of grad school. The adage is a good one. Reading a lot and reading widely pays off.
