Pretty much, yeah. It's a necessary but not (always) sufficient condition that a hero be celebrated as such. It's sort of like a prodigy. Know what a prodigy is? That's a bright kid with plenty of opportunity and a big cheering section. Take those two things away, and all you've got is another kid that nobody cares about.
