After your first sentence, you're trying, aren't you?
Your conclusion that because of the 10 best days B&H always beats market timing in the long run is too short sighted.
Correct would be: A successful strategy must ensure that it is invested these 10 best days.
The simplest strategy for this is B&H. Problem: you then also take the 10 worst days with you.
If you had done a little more research for your article, you would know that the probability of the 10 best days above the 200-day line is significantly higher than below it. So a simple trend-following strategy also works.
If you think about it, the only reason left for B&H is the tax.
