Mary-go-round works, at least it worked for me.
And in the scheme of things aren't all engines "archaic"? I'd say it really does come down to the technology advancements versus the engine designs. Engine design has been primarily unchanged for the last century with the significant changes being in materials and the afore-mentioned changes in tech (SOHC vs DOHC, timing chain > timing belt, push rods vs cam shafts etc. etc.).
I definitely don't know the full history of the changes, but the principle and primary design, as to say cylinder lay out and 4 stroke etc, has been standard for... I would have to guess a little over a century. Except for those guys at Mazda and their crazy Wankel.
