Absolutely not.

It’s a completely reasonably argument to assert that both men made the bulk of their outsized wealth via anti-competitive monopolistic behavior that was harmful to the markets they operated in.

Gates was in fact accused of this by the US Justice Department so it’s not exactly a fringe theory.
