Humans Are Weird compared to other aliens because all of their elements they needed for instellar/intergalatic travel are present on their worlds already but we have to invent our own
Alien: what do you mean you created- you cant just INVENT new elements, thats now how this works!
Human Scientist: Well, its not easy, but we made a bunch of them, like time crystals!
Alien: what in the name of the gods of sshlao are time crystals.
Human Scientist: this! (Shows off time crystal)
Alien: ??????????????
Alien: thats not even a real object! How is that an element???
Human Scientist: we dont know, but quantum computing works a lot better with them there!
Alien: YOU DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND THEM?
