We've been set back far more than that. Consider the dark ages and potential evidence that the Black Death was allowed to spread by certain policies such as the killing of cats and I believe ending ship quarantine policies.
The destruction of the library of Alexandria. The destruction of knowledge and sciences maintained by the South American empires. Constant revisionism introduce and promote things based on ancient cultic practices like transgenderism that existed in Baal worship, multiple avenues to try to make the Bible seem inconsistent and contradictory even while the alternatives are constantly revised like the big bang and evolutionary theories (for the purpose of making people think there is no true moral authority in the world except themselves to make the transhumanism push possible by devaluing humans from a creation of God to blobs of randomly shaped flesh), relaunching the Crusades even after peace had been somewhat established (with a victory if I recall correctly), two World Wars, the Cold War, many other wars, continual assassination of figures positioned to bring about positive societal change on a large scale, the dumbing down of school systems (as evidenced by the fact that basic tests used a hundred years ago have more advanced concepts on them than their modern equivalents), revisionism of history to inspire and foster racism, destruction of the black family, abortion robbing us of countless individuals who could have brought untold innovation, suppression of technology ranging from more advanced engines to medical treatments, forcing inferior green energy onto the west that is unable to meet the demands of a modern society even without the added demand of electric vehicles, and so many more things.
