Aaron’s accolades are based purely on longevity. His peak was nowhere near the heights Mantle reached.
Aaron was much better than he's given credit for being a Top 3-5 all timer. I think the longevity thing has been blown out of proportion. He wasn't playing just to keep playing. He was still a Top 5-10 player in the league when he was 40. Only his last two years when he went back to Milwaukee were playing out the string type years.

If Aaron played with the Yankees, Cubs, or Red Sox he would be getting all the glazing. Though Mantle I think is somehow underrated by general consensus even if he wasn't better than Hank.
Bonds is the GOAT though
