You keep using pictures of Yates at his worse to " prove " your point and its sad honestly and , again you keep clinging to this idea that Coleman has superior muscle shape and granted I'll agree with you that some muscles he does , but some he doesn't calves , glutes , abs , triceps , forearms , some muscles he does have the egde in shape but lets NOT mistake either of them for being aesthetic bodybuilders because neither of them ever were , and here is a pic that compares a little better than the one of his worse shape.
see, here is the problem with your assesment of Dorian's shape:
He no doubt has better shaped abs and calves. That is obvious.
Glutes, no one really cares about.
Triceps, maybe.
But here is the flaw in your arguement:
Those are INDIVIDUAL bodyparts.
What counts is HOW they ALL fit together. For example, even though Dorian may have an edge in forearm or triceps shape, his arms never, ever looked as good as Ronnies:
the same can be said about quads.
And, what about whole body taper? The pre-gut Ronnie destroys dorian on the overall body shape.
So, your argument is totally flawed because it does not look at the big picture.
That is why there was such as drastic difference in the pics that I posted:
the difference was because of the sum total of all the parts and how they fit together to create a pleasing effect.
Not because of an edge in a bodypart here or there.
