It proves how good they are even if this is mostly true.
Yes, its always from people who have heard 'Tom Sawyer' and 'Spirit of Radio' a handful of times and have made the determination they don't like the band based on that alone. More often than not, irritability for Geddy's voice gets cited as the reason more often than not, which I can underastand, it's an acquired taste. But still, the same people saying this are the same people who either can't, or choose not to listen to music beyond the vocals, which isn't really Rush's target market in the first place.
