This guy's awesome. It reads as if he's trying to dilute the great news by suggesting wars ending a decade before or moon landings 10 years are are really why everyone's cheering.

I don't think he's necessarily trying to dismiss this as express curiosity about that kind of reaction to that news and adding in other examples where the whole nation would have celebrated something.

If anything, he seems to be saying that the invention of the polio vaccine is in the same class of news as the others, not that people were only celebrating the polio vaccine because they were happy about these other events that were well passed or still to come in the future.
