FYI saying that a lot of people think differently from me will never work in persuading me because I am not a sheep and think with my own brain thank you very much.

Keep in mind prog was evolving around the same time Floyd came out. You could say they helped create many of prog's practices.
Prog can borrow from Floyd without Floyd being prog. We actually see this concept of drawing from outside of the genre all the time with prog. It's wild that progressive acts don't always act by the rules in order to make their music more forward, I know.
