Why is it that people think that Gryffindor is the best? It’s definitely subtly implied in the books. But when you think about it:
Gryffindor = bravery
Slytherin = cunning/ambition
Ravenclaw = intelligent
Hufflepuff = hard work
I think Gryffindor’s characteristic is the least important. Why would anyone want to be in Gryffindor?
