... as opposed to the objective "worst" in the root question?

Yeah, that's fine.

I'm just saying there was plenty going on between '86 and '94 to challenge the limits of chugga-chugga as you put it. And I won't argue against Destroy Erase Improve being a watershed album, and I'd even consider it a respectable stance if you want to say it might be the heaviest record ever if that's your opinion, but it's not like it's an unquestionable monolith that no other records from around or before then could stand up to.
