Can you name a single ISEF grand prize winner who spent several years on their project? (By “project” I’m talking about that particular specific question they’re investigating, not the general field or topic.) But I do strongly agree that you should do a project to learn about whatever it is you’re interested in.

How is it the same as coming up with the idea? I may do a lab in science class and understand it all, but does that put me at the same level as Pasteur (or whoever else)? No.
