Not necessarily: by breakthrough i meant something we know is physically possible but we don't know how to make it yet (like nuclear fusion), whereas "new fundamental concepts" means a change in paradigm, akin to darwinian evolution's discovery, an association of concepts that is independent of technology, ideas we can't even conceive right now because of lack of words.
