I feel that progressive rock and a lot of classic rock bands especially takes an unfair beating for it, because they take the more complex approach.

It's funny but I feel like it's pretty much the opposite. All those classic rock guys get held up as the gods in the pantheon of rock n roll while the punk and post-punk musicians are kind of neglected.
Meh. I bet a lot of the difference in our perception probably comes from our difference in age too. I grew up in a time when those 70s guys were totally worshipped, but maybe when you were growing up the punks were getting more worship.
