I just checked in my copy of "Computer Networks and Their Protocols"
by Davies et al., (1979) and they cite the 1964 Baran paper and the
RAND reports, on page 47, as "the first full description of [packet
switching]". So it's not like this was arcane knowledge. The earliest
reference of his own that Davies cites is from 1967.
