Yes, the "analysis" is called listening.

I believe the Avicenna experiment demonstrated that this approach is important but insufficient.

This oversimplification entirely ignores the distribution of energy levels within the population of electrons, entanglements between electrons, and other quantum effects. I will say again that these effects may be more important than you think. In electrical devices, electrons pass through endless physical striations, laminations, loops, coils, etc. in all the multi-stranded, polycrystalline wires, inductors, capacitors, coils, wirewounds, etc. Microfluctuations due to nonhomogeneity in the distribution may for example lead to irregularities in the resultant electromagnetic fields which in turn lead to irregularity in electron flow.
Okay. Let me give you an analogy. Let's say to poach an egg, I say to put an egg in one liter of 90 degree water for 5 minutes. The parameters are volume, average temperature and time. Now, in Case #1, the water is brought to boiling and allowed to cool to 90 degrees uniformly. The egg is gently slid into the water with a slotted spoon and let to sit undisturbed for five minutes. Now in Case #2, the egg is gently slid into the pot, covered with 100 ml of crushed ice for one minute and then exposed to 900 ml of jets of superheated steam for four minutes. It can be done such that volume, average temperature and time are equivalent in both cases. However, the results for the egg will not be the same.
Making good electricity is like poaching an egg. I said this when the Avicenna experiment was done, and I repeat it now.
