In addition to inventing and building multiple electrical machines that worked (dynamos engines, etc), Tesla repeatedly demonstrated the effective wireless transfer of energy.
There was no "failure" of the wardenclyffe Tower, monopolists who wanted to charge money for free electricity tore it down.
Transceivers in common use today work in the same way that Tesla described, and you know how induction works as well, so your problem here is that regardless of his inventions working, Tesla also believed in a broad prevailing scientific notion unrelated to his electrical work that was later proved too vaguely conceptualized to be relevant.
His inventions worked. And as you say, Tesla's 'bullshit crazy plan"(that works) is simple induction.
You sound very upset and are acting as though you are in an argument, but you are also agreeing with everything I'm saying and everything Tesla accomplished.
Do you just like Edison/dislike tesla, or what is making you so upset?
