In the beginning were Fish and Moore, they came together and the patents were conceived. As both had individual access rights a formal agreement was reached in which they were unfied once again.

Which reflects the reply to your second question:

"Theoretically, the egg must come first. A chicken is conceived and born in an egg; therefore, without the egg the chicken could not have been either conceived or born, it may be that the egg was the product of two different species accidentally mating to conceive the egg that contained the first, "chicken" as we know it. the egg came first, think about it logically, instead of trying to question it, there is no other logical/practical conclusion"
