Exactly. It sort of amounts to a "best you've heard of" question, or your personal favorite, for the reasons you stated.
The ones I listed, Geronimo, Robert Rogers, Daniel Morgan, Richard Winters, Tony Herbert, and David Hackworth, are some of my favorites, and reasonably well known to people who like to read about small unit actions.
