      I personally feel the trebuchet is the pinnacle of engineering, which is the superior siege weapon.

        Ah, but how did the designer of the first trebuchet have time to perfect their design? Someone else grew extra food for them. How did the farmer produce this surplus bounty? By using the plow!

        But you’re right, the trebuchet is indeed the superior siege weapon.
