No, it’s about recognising pieces of crap when you see them. But a piece of crap can still be the best in his or her field. Henry Ford is a contender for the most influential car manufacturer ever despite being a racist arsehole and fascist sympathiser. Wernher Von Braun has a good case to be regarded as the greatest rocket scientist ever despite being a likely war criminal as he was well aware the Nazis were using slave labour to advance his work (look up Operation Paperclip, part of which was an effort to whitewash the history of Nazi scientists and engineers so the US could continue to harness their skills).
Put another way, a person may be both the best and the worst at the same time. But it just so happens Margaret Court isn’t the best female tennis player of all time.
