This was a a poorly worded statement by me; I am not pushing for absolutes (my OP's entire point). Like I said in above post I think Majors have more weight the higher you are on the list. That being said the counter argument is somewhat interesting for the Tiger GOAT camp based on wins not majors, at what point is Jack the GOAT if Tiger's wins looked like (wins/majors) 77/8 vs 77/14 or would 77/6 still do it? I find it hard to believe the same camp would be pushing for Tiger GOAT as a 77/2 player.
Cliffs: Wins and Majors both matter, how much is the debatable point. If you feel Tiger is GOAT now at 77/14, would your opinion change at 77/6? I'd like to think it would have a impact on the argument, which is what I'm saying the absolute/polarized posters are missing. Opposite would be true in a 30/19 case
