We re-invented the wheel quite some times.

Stone, then wood, then wood with spokes, then wood with spokes and iron trim, then we eventually added rubber, rubber tubing, then all metal spoke with rubber. For Mars rovers they made new types of air-less wheels.

The saying ‘do not reinvent the wheel’ is just silly

Re-invented or re-implemented? The design was always the same just the materials have changed (and maybe there's something about motor racing and new wheels being available every year...)

Software all uses electricity, doesn't it?
