I guess if Thomas Edison had listen to you and Albert ( not always right you know ) Einstein, then, Thomas Edison would have never experimented over 6000 !!! with a carbon filament until he got it right.... and those who have persisted in great achievements would have just given up upon your great ( failed ) wisdom...

Well, actually, Edison didn’t run the exact same failed experiment thousands of times. That would have been insane. He was varying the parameters, which is what science does.

Again, that's 6000 different elements. Not 6000 tries with the same material hoping for different results.
