There are three times as many grand slams on non-clay surfaces.
Yep, thus why I said compare how far he advanced “on average” in the hard court tournaments versus hour far Federer and Djokavic advanced on average in the French Open.

The counterargument to this that people throw out is that Nadal has won the US Open once more than Djokovic, and only once less than Federer... and that's the fastest surface there is for a hardcourt slam.
US Open is actually one of the slowest hardcourt surfaces on tour (along with Indian Wells and Miami). Aussie Open is fastest hardcourt slam and one of the fastest hardcourt surfaces on tour (along with Cinci).
Not too crazy that Rafa has had success at US Open but he's also capitalized well on his opportunities there (and has won it twice (2017 and 2019) with some incredibly easy/lucky draws). Novak only has 3 US Open titles but has made the final 9 times. Just a weird slam for him especially when you consider he's also made Aussie Open final 9 times but has won it every time.
