Stones. They pulled much better trim

That is highly debatable. The Beatles absolutely plowed their way through the world. Your statement sounds like it's based on choice of spouses, which is not the proper metric.

longevity-wise the Beatles were a flash in the pan.

On a quality-adjusted basis, the Beatles were of about the same career duration as the Stones. Sure, the Stones were together to put out Steel Wheels. You can have it.

LOL…The Beatles have sold more records than The Stones and Led Zeppelin combined in that 8 year “flash”. Pretty successful “flash”. Also, Lennon, McCartney & Harrison all had #1 albums in their solo careers. Even Ringo had two #1 singles. Can’t say that about any member of the Stones or LZ. FYI… I love the Stones & LZ. Grew up listening to both every day. Saw both live at the LSU Assembly Center in the late 1970’s. Both top 5 bands of all time in my opinion. But The Beatles are the GOATS! Everyone has their own personal preferences.
