In the case of The Ramones, The Clash and people like Johnny Rotten, I wasn't referring so much to their musical style as the fact that they have all said they wanted to be Beatles and admired them tremendously. Johnny Rotten said he was frustrated he didn't have the skills to be at the level of The Beatles but decided he wasn't going to let it stop him.

Johnny Ramone: “My favorite artists have always been Elvis and The Beatles, and they still are!"

As for Bob Dylan, it's been stated that songs like I Want to Hold Your Hand and House of the Rising Sun by The Animals inspired him to go electric. I highly doubt he did it simply because he's an original. Brian Wilson literally had a mental breakdown after Sgt. Pepper was released. The Beach Boys were certainly up there, but I don't think they considered themselves equal. One time some musicians and bands like The Rolling Stones were sharing the new music they came up with. Paul played a rough cut of A Day in the Life, and the room went completely silent.

Well The Beatles took LSD in 1965, and it was already reflecting in their music (they were also already spreading the message of love on Rubber Soul). The psychedelic movement was still very underground at this point. Their use of the sitar (first band to use it), Indian music and bringing psychedelic music to the mainstream absolutely influenced the era. The Grateful Dead have also directly stated they went from being a jug band to taking music more seriously because of The Beatles.

I do fully agree with your last point.
