Yes, that’s a good way to put it. He basically thinks he deserves an award, and the many people who vote for them do not. They could be wrong, they could be biased, there could have been a lot of performances that just barely surpassed him that year, etc etc. But he’s not entitled to an award, no one is! And again, I would argue he has been recognized for his work in many ways.
If you disagree, that’s fine, but you shouldn’t use straw-man arguments. I had several points in my comment and “he shouldn’t want to be recognized” was not one of them.
