That's a bold opinion, but good to you for voicing it. You know what they say about opinions. Opinions are like arses; they all stink and mine is better than yours. :)

I agree that ALNM is quite perfect in every way, but expecting something of the like to come along every few years would be a rough wait. Instead I concentrate on all the wonderful (even imperfect) pieces that move me in one way or another. Looking through that lense, I'd say there have been some pretty darn great musicals on and off Broadway in the last forty years. I'd list them, but after all, they're just my opinion. I hope another musical comes along soon that will touch you in the manner that ALNM has. Sometimes you see a show that strikes you as unforgettable, and you can't shake it. Glad you've had that joy... even if it was decades ago.
