interesting question, man. I think it's a different order of priorities for different players. there are some cats for whom technique is definitely the top priority while for others it's the passion. for me personally I'd rank them the same way you have them listed above.
example: a few years ago I went to the Bozeman Bass Bash. Greg Campbell was playing a maple and swamp ash Warrior with active electronics. my main bass was my wenge and walnut Conklin with passive electronics. we traded basses and each still got our signature sound from the basses we were playing at the moment.
from the lows,
