I think its best not to judge your own species' rate of advancement, because its practically impossible to prove, unless you get it wrong in which case you look like an ass.
Back to the Future Part II was set in 2015, and it had flying cars, sky highways, robots, holograms on streets, fingerprint scanners on houses and super-ovens, that could cook a pizza in seconds.
thats...let see...3 years away? do you really see all that being achieved and then constructed wide-spread, in 3 years?
People who watched these things back in the 80s believed things would be like that.
Terminator, wasn't Judgement day initially stated to occur in the year 2000? with giant killer robots with futuristic guns and time travel...that were invented by man?
Now its 2012 and Christian Bale can still enjoy his Weetabix in peace.
Now, i know they're movies, but they were based on what people thought the future would be like.
So in terms of guessing advancement, I think Nylund has done a pretty alright job combined with what was already known in Halo:CE.
That and he was the best out of the Halo writers, He should stick to them.
