Why didn't Korra just metalbend her way out of that box?

in the legend of korra, when she was taken and put inside that box after bolin, asami, and mako were arrested, the box was metal. the equalists electrocuted it by orders of amon to knock her out. for the box to conduct electricity, it would have had to be metal.

metalbending is a thing and a widely done thing thanks to toph.

if korra's already mastered earthbending by that time, she would have known metalbending too.

so why didn't she just metalbend her way out?

    She doesn't know how to metal bend and the box was made out of platinum so she couldn't have metal bend that.

    lol I got a thumbs down, They even said on the show that they can't metal bend platinum.

    Sorry, I just haven't learned metalbending yet. Even if I did, that metal box is made of platinum, and I can't metalbend platinum!
