Even some pessimistic predictions have been made, asserting that, due to the limitations of human lifespan and physiological rules, scientific development on Earth would stagnate for a long period of time.

Unless there is a major breakthrough in biotechnology that significantly extends human lifespan, or at least slows down the aging process. Otherwise, relying solely on the current human lifespan, which barely lasts a century, just to learn from predecessors' theories and integrate knowledge, one would need to spend an entire lifetime studying, thinking, and at the peak of their creativity.

Furthermore, to achieve anything on top of that foundational knowledge is immensely difficult, as one can imagine.

If the standards for publishing a paper were really that high, those scientific journals that mainly publish theoretical results might as well become annual publications, as there likely wouldn't be enough content to fill their pages.
