Doubt. Jobs was a deadbeat dad for many years, refused to acknowledge his daughter or even admit that he named a computer after her, treated employees and cofounders like crap, etc. I think Jobs had a very low EQ, perhaps even a sociopath. He was just lucky, shrewd, and ruthless. Accounts of his last days indicate that even he regretted his behavior.

Speak for yourself. Whenever I learn that an artist is a monster, I think appreciate their work much less. Thankfully much of Apple's success is due to the work of hundreds and thousands of others, not solely this "great man" whose worshipped among the faithful.
Wondering you can imagine a scenario you'd be ok with.
I for one know of a guy that was told by his gf she was on birth control. Turns out she purposely wasn't so that that she could have a baby with him. This isn't someone's guess. This was told to my sister by her best friend.
That is still not the same thing as a deadbeat dad, which is someone that knowingly created a child and then abandoned it.
