Though i am sure others will nail you as well, you are quite incorrect. Pre-tinned iron clad copper tips came out in the 1970s and became the norm quickly. I had been soldering for at least a decade by then and saw it change.

The only idiot here is the one who opens his mouth to insult rather than politely share the little knowledge you have.
Of course 'never file a tip' is wrong advice, but why reply 2.5 years later?

A few years ago my wife purchased newfangled LED light strings for a big Christmas wreath we hang over our front door. They were colorful enough, but rather dim. So I made a little enhancement box to increase the voltage and light intensity to a satisfying level. She was pleased. For a few days, that is, until all the LED strings burned out.
Thanks,
