Given the other spinners in matches involving Lyon averages 61, while it's 41 for Warne; that's actually a pretty valid take. Not sure if I agree though, have to think about it.

No, I mean really.
Lyon averages 31 while other spinners do 61.
Warne averaged 26 while other spinners did 41.
Statistically, Lyon is actually better here.

These seem misleading. You've picked "home" in the filter instead of "Australia". The latter would actually show the numbers in Australia when these spinners played the same games.

What if other spinners in Lyon's time were sh*t?

Sadly, that's just very wild speculation; as is the fact that probably Indian spinners who played with Ashwin were probably good.

Treating this as a linear thing is wrong. Warne excelling when others struggled is more impressive than Lyon merely being ok in a sea of ass.

Comeon now, I am not treating it as linear. And be honest, Warne excelling when others struggled is definitely very impressive but Lyon doing good when others were incredibly horrendous is more impressive. FTR, I think Warne was better at home, but statistically speaking, Lyon is better here.

Whatever it takes!!!
Warne's bowling was always far more suited to Aus than it ever was to the SC. SL lollapsed in ridiculously funny ways which is why he has the record he does over there. In general, bowlers always ensure they give themselves the best chance of succeeding in their home conditions, even if its spinners in SENA and fast bowlers in the SC. Its silly to think otherwise and build any great narrative around something that is just basic common cricketing sense.
