a) The time isn't right for the emergence of another Einstein just now
this is the big one. scientific breakthroughs move in waves, it's not just the right person but also being in the right place and time.
However I believe that with all the holes being poked in the Standard Model by dark matter/energy and the fact that we STILL have no idea what gravity actually is, we're headed for another Einstein popping up.
