I'm saying that the majority of good PF songs from their great albums are credited to Waters and not Gilmour. Meaning Waters wrote both the music and the lyrics. Kind of like McCartney/Lennon wrote a lot more stuff than Harrison. I'm not saying Gilmour wasn't important and even essential; i'm saying Waters was the heart and soul of the band and responsible for most of its music.

this person says it better than I can
quote:
Gilmour has always been the true musicican in Floyd. From the very start (almost), he took charge in shaping Waters’ ideas into listenable pieces. Together with Wright and Mason, he made them into the classics we know today. Sure, Waters was the man behind most of it, but could he play? No. Could he write down the long instrumental parts? No. It’s all Gilmour and Wright. I think what Waters’ did best was to say “I like this” and “I don’t like this”. He has always been good at hearing what he wants and telling the band how to do it, but it takes a musician to make it happen…
