The Jeff Goldblum virus one?

I believe fans have provided a retroactive explanation that all our computer tech was based on reverse engineering the crashed alien ship, and thus the arch, and abis etc were compatible.

It's a movie, so whatever, but considering how easily a single project / vendor / chip / anything breaks compatibility, it's a laughable explanation.

Edit: phrasing

That isn't actually a fan theory, it was actual plot that was cut from the film for time.

Still dumb but not as dumb as what we got.
