I didn't say Tesla was a bad scientist. I don't think he was Einstein. I think that - as a scientist - he was somewhere between Edison and Steinmetz. As a showman, he was somewhere between Donald Trump and Uri Geller.
The thing is, history doesn't venerate Edison and Steinmetz for their showmanship.
And history won't remember Trump and Geller at all.
History venerates Edison largely because he got away with his theft of Tesla's ideas. Edison was a "Direct Current" man right up to and beyond the point where it was conclusively shown that AC was able to scale up dramatically. DC can run automobile starters and radios pretty well. AC powers industry.
In fact, Tesla's name is used to denote a measure of magnetic flux density. This is an acknowledgement that Mr. Tesla's contributions to the field were substantial. Mr. Edison's name is remembered in the naming of the standard light bulb socket.
You clearly don’t know history if you think Edison is > Tesla.
I suggest you read some.
