I think, unlike you, Hemingway was not a very nice person.
But, IMO, his writing ability is not overrated. I think the guy actually, singlehandedly, changed the way prose is written.
Is it cold in Pittsburgh?

It's actually been warmish today. 40 degrees. Tomorrow it goes back down to the 20s.
I think it might be too bad that Hemingway changed prose style. I really like the old styles... Dickens, or a Sherlock Holmes story, or Mark Twain. Now that's prose I can lose myself in.
