There is something wrong or that I don't understand.

I thought that Thou was informal, froma wikipedia
"For a long time, however, thou remained the most common form for addressing an inferior person"

Also in etymonline "By c. 1450 the use of thou to address inferiors gave it a tinge of insult"

If you want a scientific biography, "Subtle is the Lord" by Abraham Pais, but you need a degree in physics to understand many chapters (unfortunately for me a degree in engineering was not enough).
Abraham Pais wrote also "Einstein Lived Here" a non-scientific biography, but I did not read it.

A surprising tip from his personal page.
"If you are desperate to get my books and your library can't afford them, try to type the words "library genesis" in a search engine. I disagree with piracy, but this site saved me many trips to the library, which unfortunately does not carry electronic versions of older books."
