Invention, discovery..does not matter. There was a point in time when humanity was oblivious to the phenomenon and then there was a point when we were not and we could generate and use it.

This is so false. Try doing the research to back up your risible claim.

Tell me the date when humanity went from oblivious to electricity to generating and using it.

What exactly is false?
It is false to claim that there was a moment when electricity went from unknown and opaque to understood and producible. That “moment” was thousands of years and all incremental.
I didn't make no such claims. I claimed that these "incremental" progress was not about simply doing more of the same stuff aka scaling.
