Interestingly, those are all very good points, all of which are being covered ...in the video.

With this reasoning, aren't most things a work of plumbing, and nothing ever really new? And isn't it how innovation happens, at the end of the day?

This. Thanks for taking the time to watch the video to form your own opinion!

I'll check with Caleb but I am guessing/hoping he will be willing to make the paper more broadly accessible soon.

To briefly clarify on why I believe it is the former: Caleb just happened to have caught a really bad fungal pneumonia when he was 9yo, and that was his inspiration to explore what could be done to diagnose things differently. And he just happened to do tons of research to try and re-use open source technology, etc.
