English not your first language? No worries, see the "would have"? That phrase signifies a hypothetical - I'll leave you to ponder what hypothetical situation could be meant in this particular case, but spoiler: it involves comparing features of things that were constructed in different time frames.

I'm not berating, I'm helping clear up some confusion about the conditionals.
