The problem with the argument of Jordan vs. Bias is in one argument you are arguing fact and in the other you are arguing fiction. Not to mention the argument is flawed as well due to the fact that you would be using the standard set by Jordan to argue Bias being greater. Having seen what Jordan accomplished it is too easy to assume Bias would have accomplished more. In my opinion there is too many variables that go unanswered before we could even consider a Michael vs. Bias discussion.
