I kinda see it like this
The Problem is since the Manitou can't understand Technoloy(They are the
wrong kind of spirits), they just send inspiration at random back through
history. Thats why Mad Scientist invent all sorts of things. Also since
the Manitou just sends this raw data back, your average 19th century
scientist isn't going to understand most of it, So he might just understand
a small portion of the what he saw and end up using that insite to make
something completely different.
By the way, I'm assuming this all effects the MS Subconsiously. He doesn't
actually see the a glimps of the future, instead an idea is directly
implanted into his head.
