Buddha gave the path of end of suffering as eight noble qualities: "right view", "right intention", "right speech", "right action", "right effort", "right livelihood", "right mindfulness", and "right concentration".
Notice "right mindfulness" is different than "right concentration" and it is just 1/8th of the path. When your hypothesis is 1/8th of the complete picture, of course your studies will prove it does not work.
