Like I said, you don't need to pay the creator of knowledge if you're just doing research. If someone is on their way to creating "S," no law has been broken. And quite honestly, if "S" works by itself or is useful by itself without relying on previous steps, no royalties probably need be paid to the creators of the previous steps in your example.
The system is, just like people, flawed. But it works.
