Much of Eistein's issues could have been due to degenerative issues. If he had everlasting youth, perhaps he would have had the energy and motivation to properly tackle the research in QM.
That and no one person is bigger than science, Even though Einstein opposed QM it kept making advancements. Imagine if Einstein spent even all this time opposing it, their theory would be even more rigorous and advanced. More likely we would have changed his mind at some point and actively contributed, why would a one time scientist be stubborn for many decades in the face of so much evidence?
- Arizhel 9y agoEinstein opposed QM, but Einstein has never been the arbiter for all of physics. QM was created and promoted by his own contemporaries, after all, not people who came many decades later. Even if all those scientists of that time had managed to magically stop aging at 30 and live indefinitely, QM would have succeeded as a theory because of all the scientists who promoted it and tested it.
