Influence is very important, but still only one part of the puzzle. People can have massive impacts on society without leaving an impact as a person, and ERB probably wouldn't do a character for inventing the microwave if he's about as interesting as one, or isn't known by most people.

That said, lists like these are always good to keep in mind when thinking about big names that still could warrant an appearance.
