This. It's completely nonsensical to chastise the public for mourning someone disproportionately. Had Dennis passed a year from now, would this article have been written? This reasoning slips into the unproductive paradigms that elitists subscribe to to feel better about themselves. Are Ritchie's and Job's legacies inseparable? Yes. Does that mean their work is to be valued by precedence? No more than the likes of Tesla and Edison.

I appreciate the insight to Ritchie's immortal legacy. But basing legacies on such logic quickly deteriorates into gibberish.
