That's my childhood, inverted.

We had milk floats. Everyone had milk floats. They were everywhere. Pure electric vehicles powered by lead-acid batteries.

We also had the Apollo program. It was both amazing and just part of our normality. No one had ever heard of the space shuttle. Rockets were definitely not reusable, and no one suggested that they ought to be.

I'm afraid that I don't get your point.
