I cannot leave this be.

Cliff Burton was primarily driving the classically rooted thrash metal they were putting out prior to that point, as he had the most musical training. When he died before justice was finished, you ended up with no bass presence at all with Jason basically being mixed out of every final product (nor getting any input in the first place), leaving Lars as the entire rhythm section all on his own, and James having the biggest influence on the musical style - this shifted them to being rooted more in blues which is what he grew up with. It just so happens that the blues-rooted rock style is/was more radio-friendly. It's not a question of selling out, it's about their being forced to change stylistically thanks to a bus accident that took the heart and soul of the 'true' Metallica.

Also, no way MegaDave wrote all Metallica's best songs. He wrote a couple (and that includes Mechanix, which is inferior to Four Horsemen, but of course all the riffs are his), but the reason he and Megadeth are so good is because he got kicked out of Metallica. He was an angry drug addict when he was with metallica and was most of the time sweating heroin. Getting kicked out of Metallica was the best thing that happened to him because it gave him something to prove and a reason to succeed.
