I'm trying to think of examples of technologies that were innovative and basically worked, but weren't potent enough to overcome the skepticism eventually, and/or couldn't overcome the deadweight of externalities. Not potent enough: flying cars Couldn't overcome externalities: nuclear rockets Any others?
