Well it's true that Mariah has all of those 7 octaves and is a great technical singer but there are still people who think that britney's voice is better and like it more and it pretty ends the term fact for that.
A fact is something like for example ai otsuka is japanese (unchangeable?).
This is a thing you can't argue since her genes are japanese, thefore she is japanese so it's a fact.
If you say the Mariah Carey's voice is better than her as a fact there will always be the people who feel and think that ai otsuka's voice is better and then the "fact" turns into opinion since that's how they feel and think and the 7 octaves and great technical voice of Mariah can't be proved as better.
The only fact is that she has those 7 octaves and sing technically great and has an awesome voice, but not that it's better than ai's. It's better than ai's in the fact that Mariah has 7 octaves and sing great technically but it doesn't say ai's voice isn't better. As there are people that will think (since they really think) that Mariah's vocals are bad and won't like it and will like ai's and therefore will think that which makes it their opinion.
So X voice better than X can't be proven since there will be always people that will think differently so the much "fact" will fade away into opinion.
People though can't say "I think ai otsuka isn't japanese" because it's a fact she is, she were born to japanese parents and has japanese genes.
That's fact that no one can say anything about it.
It's a fact that Mariah has 7 octaves and great technical singing vocals but it doesn't make her vocals necessarily better than anyone else's.
A bit confusing =P lol.
