So why aren't they used? Or rather name three.
Emmy Noether? Grace Hopper (maybe, as discussed above)? Rosalind Franklin?
It's true that it's evidence that there are so few, but given the historical status of women in academia, it is quite weak.
They probably aren't used because "First Computer Programmer" sounds cooler than "Valuable Contributor to Field X".
