I think you are correct but I don't think it's that black and white. There's so much more to it than that. If 100 websites all create create great content on a particular topic one of them will be at position #100. Also, I see lots of spammy websites, or those copy-paste "authority" sites getting good rankings. There's just so much to consider.
