Very possibly, but the EMI-Marconi system was the first fully electronic television system to be used in regular broadcasting, which is to say that it was the first practical system.
Earlier systems may have been practicable, but they weren't used in practice.
I worked at EMI Central Research for a couple of years, and even got to talk to William S. Percival for a while, so I may be prejudiced.

I knew that.
The original patent (2292387) is in the name of Hedy Kiesler Markey (her real name), and George Antheil.

True. However it was the fruit of the labors of many more individuals than Blumlein. Projects of this nature are a team effort. I believe some input came from contributors at A. C. Cossor, and others.
I believe the original Marconi-EMI system used cameras based around Zworykin's Iconoscope tube, which incorporated some of Farnsworth's ideas.

That's a standard NAND, you missed the requirement, "...so that delays to output from each input are identical." ...Jim Thompson

OK. Add two more series strings of NMOS devices from the OUT line to ground and shift their gate connections around (I'm not gonna draw it).

Indeed.

Sure. Everybody stands on the shoulders of giants. Blumlein covered a lot of ground in his relatively short life - he's like Einstein in physics, in that when you are digging into something new stuff you run a fairly high risk of running into the name. You do wonder whether it was a relative, but with those two it never is.

I've often wondered how different things might have been if he'd survived.
