Answer to Question 1

It implies that something primitive is both inferior and earlier in a chronological sense.
There are other terms that can be used in its place.

Answer to Question 2

Invention is a new combination of existing cultural features; innovation is change
brought about by a recombination of existing cultural features; and cultural diffusion is
the spreading of a cultural trait from one society to another.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
