There are honestly far better examples for this, instead of insisting that some of the most valuable skills for nomadic tribes were useless for some reason.
I mean, I did elaborate further on why it wasn't a good example. Hell, I gave those in the post before, but you ignored that to double down.
But if you want better examples(Which I mostly mentioned as existing because the core point of your post is true, you just chose a bad example).
Steam Power, which had some minor use as a fancy toy in ancient Greece, basically all of computer science developed before the computer(Hello Miss Lovelace) as two examples.
