You are forgetting Syd Barret...
He started the band, he was trying to implement things (like non-traditional rock instruments) when the rest of the band rejected the ideas (then later embraced them)
He was a man way ahead of his time, his ideas and songwriting were revolutionary.
What Waters did with the Floyd was great, but lets not forget old Syd. A genious! Put on "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" and give it a good listen. An extraordinary album
