Shakespeare's plays are also far from perfect, or all 'brilliant' so his 'lack of education' isn't an argument for saying that he didn't exist. He had a few utterly brilliant plays, and several boring shits and several mediocre to good ones. This is what we call "life's work" for musicians. Not all of Elton John's stuff was a win, or the Beatles. Or the Rolling Stones.
