The big deal about quantum computing is that when you have that kind of power, you can model things – organic molecules, materials, the interactions of complex systems – down to the atomic level. That means you can figure out how to build all kinds of useful things, without having to actually build the ones that won’t work.
Which effectively means “a quantum computer worked it out” is like “a wizard did it,” only for SF.

Quantum computing is such an enormous advancement it’s unfair to even describe it in terms of computers as we know them.
