I'm not particularly concerned if you believe me or not. I was trying to provide helpful information based on my own knowledge. You posted a link to a site with very vague information, and even that site really only says that the LED bulbs run cooler than incandescent bulbs.

If you do any research on LED bulbs beyond the basics you will find the same things out.

Part of the problems encountered with bringing LED bulbs to market as a viable incandescent replacement has been related to getting sufficient light output for a palatable price, and doing so in a manner that didn't overheat the diodes and cause premature failure.

If you want to learn something, do some actual homework, I gave you some ideas to start a search with. If you simply want to argue with me, you are coming unprepared.
