Heck yeah. After all, who do we remember as the "inventor" of the
steamboat, which was the single biggest step from a medieval economy
(everything made locally, shipping extremely expensive & laborious &
slow) to our technological/industrial one where goods are cheaply &
swiftly shipped half way around the world.

Sounds like this will be a great story.
