Well, that's a bit extreme. No evaluation of a historical figure is going to be entirely objective - or entirely based on opinion. That doesn't mean the the answer isn't useful, or that it shouldn't be asked.
As I said, it's not a yes/no question, and the answer depends upon the meaning of "surpassed".
