If you talk to any good trainer out there, they will tell you that this is the most absurd thing they have ever heard.

I believe the same things ...
... and so did Ben Jones, Jimmy Jones, Hirsch Jacobs, Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons, Moody Jolley, Max Hirsch, Syl Veitch, Preston Burch, John Gaver ... and many many other Hall-Of-Fame trainers ... who develop0ed champion after champion after champion.
Your definition of a "good" trainer ... is very different from mine. A good trainer to me is one who brings out and sustains the talent of the horses in his care.
The ones I mentioned did that a heck of a lot better than any of the ones you cited.
