Are you arguing that hitting hasn't evolved over the years too?
My argument is pitching has evolved precisely into what it is now. It is much harder to hit now.
And the odds of Ted Williams being able to hit today’s pitching(even as a modern day player himself) so well that we see him as the GOAT are very low.

Let me reverse this.
Hitting is what it is now.
Some nerd topping out at 70 mph in 1939 would almost assuredly never have what it takes to play Major League Baseball today. And he surely would not have much of a chance to be the GOAT.

He wouldn't concern himself with launch angles and some of the other bs, but he would still be one of the best ever.
