To boil this down into words that require less interpretation: Elliott Smith's music wasn't good enough, in my opinion, to warrant Hall of Fame induction with a relatively short career.
Had he maintained the quality and rate of production he did for another ten years or perhaps even five years, for example, I likely would have voted for him.

You're still not saying anything about his music. Your argument could apply to anyone that's released five albums, it's generic. Why not come up with some reasons that actually have something concrete behind them?
