Blix believed in February 2003 that Iraq was qualitatively disarmed on WMD. It's all about what we knew to be factual on the eve of war. On the eve of war, Ritter, Blix, and others were right, apparently.

Nobody knew on the eve of war what was "factual", and in fact nearly everybody believed there were stockpiles of WMDs.
Blix was all over the map prior to the invasion, alternately claiming they were there and then saying he didn't believe they were there etc.

And forget Ritter. Nobody considered him an authority on anything, even if he did just happen to get one thing right.
