Should rock be considered prog just because it's technical?

theres no doubt that zeppelin is more known to kids today. The Allman Brothers were more technical in their approach to writing music. sure, Jimmy Page would bust out some fast solos, but that doesnt make them more technical. The Allmans used more complex time signatures. They incorporated Jazz and Classical influences in their music. Zeppelin was more pop, especially with songs like whole lotta love and dazed and confused. Not to mention they plagiarized those songs, but thats another story.
