Well, I guess those non-existant tales do make Scatha Tolkien's 'best' Dragon. What do you think littlemanpoet meant by 'best'? Surely it wasn't "which one could have been the coolest if someone had told really cool stories about him." You just thought it would be neat to mention a Dragon that most people appropriately pay little attention to. It's like declaring that Garulf was the Rohirrim's best horseman.
