What was a better invention: the eraser or the paper clip?

Paper clip

Definitely the paper clip. It's still useful in the age of the computer. No doubt artists find the eraser useful still for pencil work, but most adults use paper clips more often these days.

@FreddieUK wow. good observation. I was always leaning towards the eraser but that's me

The paper clip.
You can use wite-out in place of an eraser.

@DragonFruit but white out is more work. I mean, you can also use a redactor felt pen too for that matter

@atlantic59 Wite-out is more work than an eraser???!!! I don't think so....but you also made my point (there are other options that work easily as replacements for an eraser.

@DragonFruit yeah you got a point, maybe not more work in terms of arm and hand movement
