More than 90% of modern civilization's economic output per capita was created after the industrial revolution, but everyone would agree that without the industrial revolution, we wouldn't have modern economies. Similarly, I think everyone agrees that without Jobs, we wouldn't have today's Apple.
No disrespect to Mr. Cook and his formidable achievements, but A LOT of the „value“ increase comes from the monetary policies in the zero interest rate economy.

We’re at higher rates than when Cook took over.

been at higher rates for like what a year, year and a half? We had low rates the whole time he was in charge before that.
Companies with big moats (OS) gets bigger. You could increase the dark patterns and Apple would earn way more because there aren't many alternatives.
As others already said, taking a company from close to bankruptcy to one of the most profitable companies in the world, now THAT is impressive.
If Cook succeeds to make a completely new moat with visionOS then that is quite impressive too but he is going to use the moats already in place so it’s still less impressive than Jobs.

90% of what Tim Cook’s Apple is doing now is still the same as what Steve Jobs was doing.
Nearly 12 years later most of the Apple top executives are repeating words spoken by Steve in public interviews.
Giant iPhone, aka iPhone 6 was actually approved by Steve Jobs before he passed away. From that onwards an insane amount of iteration.

90% of the Apple's value is the name ...
Cook has been amazing at scaling the company and sailing Apple thru some very difficult times that would have derailed other companies. Apple is a gigantic company yet people buy it's products to feel unique. It's an amazing dichotomy. He is an amazing CEO. Jobs not only picked great products but people too.
How does buying Apple products make someone feel unique?
Apple's advertising is all about being unique. The famous 1984 commercial was all about a rebel that fights the status quo. They have followed that idea in their advertising campaigns continuously. It's a falsehood since they are trying to sell their products to the masses but that does not matter. It's all about how people feel not necessarily the reality.
You can choose own color!
Cook’s skill sets are very unique and rare. I hope Apple is ready - or would be ready soon - for post Cook era
That graph really should be log scale. No disrespect to Tim Apple.
Like... we just don't have to attribute value to individuals...
