Change the citation for this section: “ One oft-overlooked point is that there were drawbacks to Whitney's first design. There is significant evidence that the design flaws were solved by his sponsor, Mrs. Greene, but Whitney gave her no public credit or recognition.”

There is probably a better source for this, but I think at least the MIT blog should be cited as the other blog just cites that. Alexzork (talk) 17:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
