Just because men couldn't get pregnant before doesn't mean that men can't get pregnant in the future. Just because all empires fell before doesn't mean all empires will fall in the future. Just because people can't walk through walls today doesn't mean that people can't walk through walls tomorrow. Just because the wheel shape is best for rolling now doesn't mean the box shape can't be best for rolling later.
There ARE some things that are IMPOSSIBLE. |
Most of these things can be tested repeatedly with controlled variables. The only exception is the empire one, and that has far more examples than the most powerful console not winning a generation. Also a particular console fighting off two competitors for ~6 years is a much different prospect than an empire reigning for the remaining life of the universe.
Your impossibility is more akin to the kind of statements seen in elections. A Catholic has never won in X district. A 5 term Senator has never lost an election in Y state. A governor has never lost reelection and then won while running as a different party. etc etc These are statements that are basically made to be broken. Numerous ones are every election, and new ones will crop up in the next election only to be broken themselves.
I don't know if you are trolling or just so deep in this that you think the PS4 winning the generation is an impossibility comparable to walking through walls.
