Glühlampe. Es gibt kein elektrisches Obst

Nachdem ich heute erfahren habe, dass Glühbirne in DWDS, Duden und Wiktionary als legitimer Begriff für eine Glühlampe in Birnenform geführt wird, lasse ich mir Glühbirne von niemandem mehr wegnehmen. Es ist das schönere Wort. Du darfst gerne Glühlampe sagen, deine Verbesserung ist allerdings fehl am Platz.
