"If I've made the breakthrough in a matter of minutes/hours/days, how come all these people - including expert codebreakers and linguists - labouring over it for decades didn't find it?

What is Tesla's famous quote?

Let the future tell the truth and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments

That quote was actually Tavie's statement, but I do agree with its implication.

Note that the answer referring to Tesla has nothing to do with the question.

We have one answer to the question, provided by another would-be solver: Gerard Cheshire.
As many people will remember, his answer was: "lateral thinking and ingenuity".

The real problem is that people simply have no idea how much thinking has already been applied, including lateral and out-of-the box. I know I gravely underestimated it, and that was 25 years ago.
