Well The Beatles "check all the boxes" as well. It depends on your definition of a "rock band" as The Beatles were also quite pop. They were both (and more) which is what makes them unmatchable. Led Zeppelin always sounded like Led Zeppelin while The Beatles sounded like, well, everything.
Bottom line: there IS no Led Zeppelin without The Beatles. So, for me, it's not a debate. BTW: The Who are my favorite band after The Beatles. I prefer them to Led Zeppelin. But Zep was incredible too!
