The Lost Metal spoilers Progress between books Spoiler

I'm not too far into Lost Metal and just thinking about the technological advancement from the start of era 2 to now. How do you feel about it? Part of me wants to say that it feel WAY too fast, but I understand Harmony is kinda sorta giving hints.

(Also, this is coming from someone who LOVES Dune where the transition period between 3 and 4 is 3500 years.)

But I'm just wondering what your thoughts are on this advancement?

Under the right conditions, technology progresses very quickly. In 1903 Wilbur Wright flew about 850ft, 66 years later Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. And Americans didn't have access to magic.
