A historian studying Britain in the 1790s observes two key economic facts: 1) The first large, steam-powered textile mill was established in a town, significantly increasing cloth output. 2) Census data from the same period shows that the majority of the region's textiles were still produced by individual artisans working on handlooms in their homes. Based on these two facts, what is the most accurate conclusion the historian can draw about the economic transformation of the period?
The widespread adoption of new industrial technologies in 18th-century Britain led to the immediate and complete disappearance of traditional, craft-based production techniques by the year 1800.
