Yep, if they don't compare themselves to Einstein, they compare
themselves to Newton.

I said millions of people observed apples fall from trees
but only Newton had the idea that led him to postulate
his laws of gravity.

Here's the problem. You haven't observed anything. Your Magdalenian
laws are something you have postulated yourself. They have not been
prompted by systematic study of pre-existing reality, facts, or data.
There is no "falling apple" behind Magdalenian.
