Jobs can be credited more for bringing all these people - talented & tasteful as they were - together through his mix of passion, charisma and "reality distortion field", IMHO, than making all the tasteful decisions himself.

He was aware of that: in one video, he pointed out that once he managed to hire the top 1-2 people, the other people will come because they'd want to work with the best.

Jobs was kicked off the Lisa project because he was disruptive. Then proceeded to start the Mac project as competition and steal Lisa's UI ideas (and some of its talent).

Honestly, after he got pushed out of Apple he learned some lessons, but I don't think the actual history there reflects what you're saying.
