The ultimate historical plot twist! Edison's legacy is basically the world's longest-running game of "I made this" meme. While textbooks credit him with inventing the lightbulb, historians are frantically waving their arms saying "NOPE!" Truth bomb: Joseph Swan had a working bulb before Edison, and even sued him for patent infringement. Edison just perfected the filament and had better PR skills than a modern influencer. It's like claiming you invented the sandwich because you added better mayo. Classic corporate ancestor energy!
