Wrong. It's your misinterpretation about the essence of cause and effect. Creativity comes before production. Always. It's a mental process. Take for instance Bitcoin, first there is design, and then there will be coding and at the far end there is implementation and ... producing (aka mining).

Thinking is not creation. Creation is doing. There might aswell been a hundred hypothetical Satoshis before him, but only one who created something.

Grow up and gain some mental fitness.
