Technical musical ability is only a means to an end. That being quality music.
Earworms do not require advanced musicianship (ex Nirvana) but Cobain was never going to cover Malmsteen, who could be classified as a musicians musician. Doesn't mean Yngwie can't write a catchy lick either, he's made plenty.
Personally I love when a musician can take a complicated groove, riff what have you and make it actually groove, such as odd times. Staying with grunge, Soundgarden or AiC for example.
Don't even get me started on polyrhythms.
