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...

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