I agree. I don't know whether it's that the more obvious stuff has been done, or that people aren't doing the work to extend the frontiers.

That latter. I can be confident in this because I have a mental list of all sorts of posts that I would make if I had unlimited time and motivation. That I choose not to is an indication of priorities, not an indication that there is nothing left at the boundaries.
