I agree
Da Vinci's sketches of the helicopter came many years before technology could rationalize how to achieve rotary wing flight. I wonder if the development of this particular technology would have progressed differently or at a different pace if Leonardo had not postulated "what if"?
In the Architecture business here in the states, ownership of construction documents become the joint property of the Architect who develops and draws them and the client who pays for them. Most all architects have disclaimers on their sheet borders that state just this. However, Ideas can easily be copied and details redrawn, thus muddying true ownership. Intellectual property is very difficult, if not impossible to control.
