I’m from all and you supported your thesis sufficiently and I can’t really argue against it. Weird Al is an extremely proficient musician and performer.

Mozart is brilliant of course, but his mythos is also a product of his time. The way music is written, taught, and performed has changed wildly since then so of course it’s hard to see people of comparable skill to him
