Yes, absolutely! But he is gradually becoming known for being overrated. If that process continues, eventually he’ll be correctly rated.

Replying to @IlyaSomin @wenfa1
I think Holmes is still pretty celebrated, and mostly properly so. (In my view, Holmes is one of the greats relative to his era, even if some of his decisions were bad and many were way too breezy.) For my money, I think the most overrated is Cardozo.

I think his rulings were, overall, substantially worse than the average SCOTUS justice of his era.

Holmes was brilliant, which of course made him more dangerous. Cardozo was of more lasting importance as a state judge.
