agree, although i wouldn't say the main, more like the sum of the parts. and that's what apparently happened in the studio according to Mick - LB brought the ingredients i listed above, and FM brought what you listed, and it all meshed "organically".

i have to also say, rhythm section has been very strong, tight, and pronounced in live versions on this tour so far, with several old songs nicely reworked (Not That Funny comes to mind).
