Why is Thomas Edison frequently mistyped as an ENTP when he is very clearly an ESTP?

I believe Edison was an ESTP for the following reasons:

• he was more entrepreneurial than scientific (classic Se-Ti)
• he is famous for stealing ideas from others. ESTPs have a very competitive nature and they're willing to bend the rules to get to the top.
• Edison didn't care about finding the truth (as Ne users tend to do). He cared more about running a successful business than intellectual pursuits. Again, very Se-Ti.
• this quote by him:

"I can always hire a mathematician, but they can't hire me."

Shows his interest in business outweighed his love for acquiring knowledge + developing theories.
