Because he thought so.  That does not mean that he was right.

You see, contrary to popular belief, and the whinings of crackpots here, we 
(working in science and truly interested in science) now know that Einstein 
was *wrong* about *many* things, e.g. QM.

That does not mean that we ignore the things about which he was *evidently* 
right, such as SR and GR, and a lot of other ideas and discoveries that are 
less known to the general public[1].  Because this is just not about 
Einstein or any other historical figure, not about “gurus” etc.: it is about 
how finding descriptions that *correctly* *describe* the universe that we 
live in, so that we may *better* understand it, and make *better* 
predictions that *help us* thrive and make *progress*.

In fact, with few exceptions Einstein was his strongest critic (just count 
the number of “correction” in the titles in [1]).  Because true scientists 
not only question what has been stated by others before and now, they also 
question themselves continuously, and correct themselves if necessary.  The 
lifeblood of science is *well-founded* *skepticism*.
