The one part I can't completely agree on... if I shoot 90 but am hitting solid shots, I'm not going to be happy haha. If I shoot 70 by blading/chunking etc. everything, I'm going to feel pretty good about the score. It just means some other part of my game was out-of-this-world good that day.

LOL I made the mistake of looking at the scorecard a little too early and went +4 over the final 4 holes.

The reason I felt that way is because solid ball-striking is the first piece of the puzzle. If I hit the ball crisp and score poorly then I know I can only get better because I'm building a solid foundation. If I score well by striking the ball poorly then I'm not getting better and really just got lucky for the most part. Kind of like building a house with no foundation...it might stand up today but it's not going to last very long. But I understand your stance as well.
