I didn't catch that issue with Max Born at all in the film.

I didn't know that "black holes" didn't become a term until the late 60s.
It's amazing how fast science continues to move.

So, is this author implying that Arthur Compton knew about the Manhatten
Project?  That's a bit disturbing in itself.

The addition of Einstein to the film was probably mandatory since Einstein
was and remains so respected and provided a possible moral fence-post that
one could grab onto in this saga.
