It is in fact extremely important to many things that this be true. Some things are just...true. There just isn't an exception.Because the artifact doesn't exist anymore? Because the material cannot be reproduced?The Silmarils were unique and irreplaceable. The One Ring was unique and irreplaceable. Callandor was unique and irreplaceable. Karsus' Folly cannot be reproduced, because the foundations upon which it depended no longer exist. Some things just...can't be made a second time, no matter how much we might wish that to be otherwise.Why would you presume time travel exists? That's absolutely not a justified assumption.There just aren't any sometimes. That's just what happens. There isn't a way to prove that 1=2 (unless we break math in one way or another, which is rather contrary to such a proof). There isn't a way to have a genus 0 surface with a hole in it. There isn't any way to have a triangle with four sides nor two sides, nor any number other than three. Plenty of things can just be flat-out impossible.There aren't ways. That's the point. You are making a circular argument.How do you know there are ways?Am I railroading you by requiring that your triangles have three sides and three angles?....you can? How?Again, you are making a circular argument. You are presuming that these ways exist.How do you know?</blockquote>
