Most of the kids wouldn't have known what that is but it would've been a good way to introduce them to it and they could've looked it up and learned more about it if they were interested. Some adult didn't think that was a good idea and felt the need to change the title for no reason.
Harry destroys the philosopher's stone by the end of the book. An anon once said "Either JK doesn't know shit about what she's writing, or she's an actual satanist"
There is mythology that says there is a way to create a philosopher's stone by summoning a demon, but that's mostly schizo writing.

King's Crossing is a large train station in downtown London. The idea was a place many English people have visited personally has a secret portal to a fantasy land of magic and gold and silver currency. But not too fantastical: the schools are still dangerous and the government clownishly inept.
It's a very modern English way of fantasy. Like all the wizards wear robes, but they all wear jeans underneath.
I just can't help but find the wizarding world all very luddite. I know there's the charm and whimsy of things having the nostalgic vibe of the forgotten age but all the same.
Rowling simply isn't a very creative writer, so she avoided how magic and real life (science) would interact and just pretended that science stopped somewhere in the 1700s for her wizarding world.
