No, of course not. The technology they (I) have is enough and they (I) shouldn't expect more. Just because some of the technology is bulky and/or expensive is no reason to believe anyone will take any interest in making improvements.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
