I always loved those quotes together, which pretty much defined the difference between the two.

I'm not a huge Oasis fan, but at least they wrote a bit and had a sound.
I simply can't comprehend the buzz around GVF. The 3 musicians are barely garage band level players and the singer just has a Robert Plant schtick. The songs are awful even by today's standards.
If you have to ask, you can't afford the answer

Are you always this dense or is it a New Year's resolution thing? If so, congratulations, you've made it to mid-February.
When I wrote "mod vs rockers type thing" I meant it's a type of thing – it was an analogy. For the hard of thinking, that is "a comparison between one thing and another, typically for the purpose of explanation or clarification". It's not that one was in the class called "mod" and the other was in the class "rocker".
To your second point about "they looked and sounded the same", it's irrelevant to the point as the initial point was that the question "Beatles or Stones" was a tribal or group identity thing, not about musical style or supremacy.
However, having said that, as The Beatles were in their Hamburg days clearly in the "rocker" mode, it kinda drives a coach and horses through your initial point. But it's not even a valid point you made as the Stones were clearly playing a lot more traditional blues even before they cut an album and The Beatles had by that point gone pop (the Stones for better or worse had acquired their former publicist, a young Andrew Loog Oldham as manager - and who stoked The Beatles vs Stones rivalry as much as he could in the name of getting the word out).
I am amazed I've had to write this down.

Which is better _at what_?
Beatles couldn't get very heavy, and one issue here is Harrison on lead guitar, isn't.
LZ did write some interesting songs but weren't as expansive as a whole IME.
The whole '... is better' is a bit childlike. But KVR, 'which is the best __', you know.

well, the beatles split up and two died, the stones are still going, so a bit difficult to compare them today. If you want to point out your own foolishness, it's entirely up to you.
