Is Dune still the greatest sci-fi novel ever written?

I re-read Dune this month and it still feels ahead of its time: ecology, religion, power. But is it the greatest? Make your case.

   For world-building, nothing touches it. For characters, I’d argue Project Hail Mary has it beat.

      Rocky alone is a strong argument, I’ll give you that.

   The appendices are my favourite part and I will not apologise for that.
