If you read the article, you'll realize that he didn't invent the active components that fight cancer. He invented a new vehicle to deliver such components - the soap.
For all intents and purposes, the headline is accurate. He invented the soap to treat skin cancer.
Little Bobby invents a robot that can peel potatoes. Will you say that little Bobby didn't really do anything because he didn't invent robots, blades or potatoes?
no, fuck that little bobby twerp nerd looking headass
Lol
Little Bobby had an idea for a potato peeling robot and then somebody else took his idea and actually made it while Bobby is still daydreaming about it.
Will you say little Bobby invented a new kind of robot?
No, I wouldn't say that. But this is not what happened here.
