McCartney is not technically a great musician on bass. You are again confusing your love for thie product (fair enough) with technical expertise.Enlighten yourself, buy Lousi JOhnson's DVD on how to play bass. Watch five minutes.
Harrison expressive is in the eyes of the beholder. It takes no manual dexterity or musical knowledge of scales, etc. For isntance, there is no solo by George that changes keys in the middle of a passage. There is not even a solo with 16th notes that I can recall.
Lennon's rhythm was good, and some very innovative (all my loving, happy just to dance).
ALL OF IT, EVERY NOTE WAS LOVED BY YOURS TRULY!!!!
That don't make anyone a hot player."Sublime tact.." is when very average musicianship is produced well enough to make a beautiful end product, as George Martin did with Abbey Road. They were great. probably the best, but we don't need to make them gods, they were not.
