Duff's Device, Feynman, and Original Approaches
In programming, Duff's device highlights the need to understand underlying architecture as compilers might not optimize as expected.

This is akin to the originality in approaching concepts like proof of history and VDFs as alternatives to traditional consensus mechanisms.
