If you are asserting that this is only an assumption, it might behoove you to read those things at the beginning of books called prefaces. In them the authors describe how they came to write and publish the work.

You are making an assertion that DIRECTLY denies things writers have been saying since the 19th century. On what evidence do you make this ludicrous claim?
