I think Trilling's opinion says more about Trilling than it does about Frost. OTOH Perhaps Trilling was aiming to say something/anything about Frost that had not been said before. Perhaps Trilling abhors sugary tributes and was just plain raisin' hell!
Like the guys being driven home very late from a party. One guy says to driver "We've passed that sign before! We are lost, aren't we." Driver says "Yeah, but we are making great time!"
