Is it possible Channing was fired from Nirvana simply for being incredibly boring?

Chad is such a nice cool dude, I don't know how they could fire him. I don't think I coulda done it. even though I know what a beast Grohl was.

I find Chad Channing a very creative drummer. He's important for 'Nevermind', for which he helped create the drums for some of Nirvana's best known songs ('In Bloom', 'Breed', 'Lithium', 'Stay Away').I find Dave Grohl's drumming on 'In Utero' mostly rather boring. Imagine how 'In Utero' would have sounded if Channing helped creating the drums. The album would be much more like the compilation 'Incesticide', which also has other creative drummers.Grohl is mostly about loudness, banging the drums hard. I think Grohl sounds great when performing Channing's parts (and those by the other drummers), but I miss creativity in composing drums by himself.

the ONLY DIFFERENCE between dave and chad's drumming is dave hit the heads harder. they could've simply asked chad to hit harder instead of kicking him out for dave. during the rock n roll hall of fame dave even tells everyone that chad is the one who made up the drum parts.

I wonder what would've happened if they released Sheep and Chad stayed in the band, would definitely have been interesting.
