In my experience fast bowlers are better when hunting in packs. And the real proof of his quality is his average amd strike rate. If he'd taken his wickets at 28+ and a strike rate in the 60s yep, he got 'em because someone had to. But he averaged 22 and had a strike rate that compares with anyone else in that category. His home strike rate was 53, away it was 48. And, in his last 69 tests, he claimed 370 wickets at a tick under 21 and a strike rate of 47. If you're taking a wicket every 47 balls at 20, and mostly bowling to top order bats as there's no one else knocking the top order over, you're one of the best who's ever played the game.
