I don't see how you can claim to know the literature well enough to make
grandiose claims like this.  Knuth (in TAOCP) says it was invented in
the early 1950s.  I knew it well in 1970s though I could not have told
you then how invented it.

I think you should speak to someone you trust about these thoughts.
It's not normal for someone starting out in a field to believe they have
invented significant things hitherto not spotted by "the dinosaurs" but
which, nonetheless, go unappreciated.
