That's why one thing I try to do when consuming a dated piece of work is to get somewhat familiar with the context of the time. I probably don't do it to the extent I should, and it would probably be an entire PhD dissertation to do it to the extent needed.
Actually something tangentially kinda related to this (barely), I've always wanted to see, and if I wasn't a lazy ass maybe even make a visualization, where you have a grid, one axis is actual time, and the other is our perception of different times, the past and future
So like you can imagine 2025 would appear with flying cars and chrome when you go to some old projection, and see how our perception of different points in the future (or the past) developed overtime. Ofc you also have different perceptions of the same time periods, depending on
if you are consulting experts, lay people, different genres of media, and different locations, and maybe that can be built into the visualization but then it isn't as neat as a 2D grid
It's sometimes even difficult to do that to things you witnessed yourself before, because it's sometimes difficult to uncouple and filter all the new things that have changed about the world that we've acclimated to, and put yourself in the shoes of your past self
