That alone would disqualify it forever 'n ever, in addition to all the other nonsense. Re: Yoko, one could also simply check the record sales (I mean hers, not John's) and the exhibitions all over the world (I think there's a new one in Berlin right now, which is why she's here; it made for some new interviews in the press) as examples for why "no one likes" is both stupid and factually untrue.
Unrelated to the point you made which I entirely agree with, though, I'm not sure about the early biographical instances because in the books I've read, the entire Ono family moved to New York in 1953 when Eisuke Ono was named director of the New York office of the bank of Tokyo and they lived in Westchester when Yoko enrolled in Sarah Lawrence. (Westchester; did anyone ever write an X-Men crossover?) Also, same book says it was her first husband, Toshi Ichiyanagi, who was Cage's prize pupil and performed with him though Yoko did stage a concert on her own in the recital theatre adjoining Carnegie Hall in 1961. (At which point John had never played in anything bigger than a night club in Hamburg and Liverpool; I'm not saying that to put her down! Just asking whether I have my details right or wrong.)
