  • Because the impact of the fire wasn’t actually as large as popular history makes it out to be. The most influential works in the Library’s collection almost certainly had copies in other libraries across the ancient world. The texts that didn’t were probably just obscure things with little actual value. Of course it still sucks from a historical perspective, but those works would have probably been lost anyways to natural degradation and not being recopied.















  • The “liquid parts” of earth are just a thin puddle over basically the same solid shell covering the rest of the planet, relatively speaking. Uranus does have a small rocky core (so probably should have been included tbh), but Jupiter’s core is just liquid and doesn’t even have a clear boundary between the gas and the core.
