I find it telling that you don't think India would have figured out some of the issues without the British's "help" is pretty classic colonialist thinking.

Sometimes things are invented multiple times. But, typically it's hundreds of years between their invention. I find it telling that you somehow think that India, which was hundreds of years behind in technology, would have magically discovered that technology on their own without contact with more technologically advanced civilizations.

And why do you keep going on about that one factor?

Because it's widely seen as one of the most important changes in human history.

Constant internal wars are part of a nation figuring it out

Ah, ok. Figuring it out is good if it's your own people killing you. It's only bad if the person has white skin.
