someone else said they do solder OK,

I think the idea very strange, But I am yet to prove if that someone else is
right or wrong.


In fact on reflection if someone sold a cheap iron with interchangeable
copper - aluminum tips I might be interested to give it a try.


I also think if we want to ridicule this joker and his idea, we should
forget the theory, make a aluminum tip, try it out and prove him wrong, if
it proves to be useless,

No. That was kind of my point, if you'd re-read.

Give us a break !!!!!
Anybody like to go bankrupt here manufacturing soldering irons with
aluminum tip, even it does soldering great !!!

The point is, they *don't* "do soldering great," hence they are not being
made.

I certainly have no wish to ridicule anyone, but am more than happy to point
out that the external evidence (lack of aluminum tips in the marketplace)
could easily be considered conclusive in this case.
