        We’re very proficient at walking, but somehow haven’t produced a walking home or anything like that.

        It’s not very linear.

        Definitely not the same thing. Just because you can make use of the end result of major efforts does not somehow magically give you access to all the knowledge from those major efforts.

        You can use a smart phone easily, but that doesn’t mean you magically know how to make one.
