I wouldn't feel dumb about it. People often look at very difficult problems for a very long time before they conclude a solution is impossible and later to be disproven. I would expect this one to be any different. Yes, there are currently no known solutions, but that doesn't preclude a brilliant mind coming in down the road with a solution.
