Imagine you have one of those wooden on-the-ground pools, it’s empty and you want to fill it up very fast because it’s summer and hot. Let’s say you somehow manage to drop 10,000 liters of water from the sky as a giant blob. Will it fill up? If the pool was physically unbreakable, yes, but it is not, so the pool will be crushed, explode and the water will be lost.
Trying to gather energy from lightning is like that.
