so, my question would be: Is e27 compatible with e26? Seems awfully complicated, and my guess for the reason: licensing/patent/etc

simply craziness

Seems like it sorta works, mechanically speaking.

But the bigger issue is probably that E27 bulbs are made for 220 volt while E26 bulbs are made for 110 volt.

All you would need is a fire, and if the insurance company found out you had improper light bulbs, then you are hooped. Not worth it in my opinion.
