Even though Lifeson is better than Townshend, Lee better than Entwhistle, Peart better than Moon, etc... The Who had more chemestry, someone like Lifeson is replacable, sure he is a very good player, but he's the weakest musician in the band, and many musicians can play like him.... Now The Who could came back with Michael Portnoy on drums and Michael Manring on bass but they simply wouldn't be The Who... That's just how important each member was to the band.
