I would agree with the above statements. Normandy as a whole is a much more close comparison to Bagration. I went as far as to assume you actually intended this in your poll. By that standard, they are of roughly equal importance. Both accomplished about the same end: Namely the destruction of a major portion of the German armies opposing them in both cases, the movement of the front towards Germany by a tremendous distance and, the isolation of large numbers of troops outside the battle area.
