How did this ppl (or others like them) not spontaneously become some default universal role models and some sort of standard we judge ourselves, others, and humanity as a whole is beyond me.
Even from a completely selfish pov each of us would want at least the majority of other people to be like them. That's how you get (ever) nice(er) things.

I mean, I know the answer why that's not the case (they can't be monetised as efficiently as "starts"), but still.
