I suppose this is true, so long as you're talking about the physical artifacts that we've created as a society. I think it's importantly less true if you begin to ask questions such as why this particular machine is so powerful, what it's limits are, and how its operation relates to other things.

Perhaps I misspoke in saying that seeking to eliminate the magic is enough. You have to follow more threads than the ones that originally lead you into the wings.
