Stainless steel has been around only 110 years. Imagine not having it. Crazy.

Iron is dogshit compared to aluminum
aluminum actually corrodes quicker, but it oxidizes to a layer of aluminum oxide that seals out air and water, whereas iron has a permeable oxide that lets air and water get to the iron under the oxide. So in practice it doesn't rust nearly as fast as iron
Everyone knows magnesium is the superior metal.
Foiled again, drat
