I get what you are saying - but there are also elements of truth in the examples you cite. Yes, much of OKW were synchophants, but there were plenty of competent generals and opportunities that were missed because of meddling. The Tiger had major technical challenges (as did much of German armor) but it had elements of superiority over US armor. That Heinkel was certainly interesting - like so many German weapons programs, they had fascinating ideas, but they were short on resources to make them functional. And on and on - so you aren't "wrong" but I think to say all of these things are propaganda written by the losers is also not really the whole story either...
