The difference between the examples cited and this news is that the above are not physical impossibilities but practical impossibilities: no one could figure out how to do any of them well enough. This on the other hand, seemingly challenges a physical law: not just something that seems darned hard to do, but that should, by definition, be impossible. - Pranesh
