Could we get a few more subjective terms in the mix?
This is all about interpretation, and a highly subjective one at that.
Jobs is cemented as an industry icon. He is different things to different people. Why his stalwart supporters (and lapdogs like Gruber) continue to be annoyed when anyone's interpretation doesn't match their own is childish.

Jobs and Apple (for whatever reason) inspired in a lot of people the kind of religious fervor that companies rarely can. Jobs' death has only further amplified this.
There are a lot of tech industry icons. What I think sets Jobs apart is the level of devotion he was able to extract from his customers/fans.
