Nick,

I suspect mechanical wizards who designed the teletype equipment were not real mad geniuses or from an alien race.  I suggest that:

1) All had an innate inclination toward mechanical stuff, and did NOT go to business school
2) They were NOT distracted by cell phones, Internet, Computer operated things, DOS, Windows, or artificial intelligence.
3) They DID have a basic goal to create stuff that worked RELIABLY, for a LONG TIME, and was REPAIRABLE
4) Lived in a culture that did NOT have he goal of lowest cost to produce, and throw-out replacement of modules
