I don't think that statement needs any correcting.
From what I gathered through reading some of his work and what I've read of his Xenu story, he seems to belong to the old school of sci-fi. Guys like E.E. Doc Smith who wrote westerns in space, rather than the Campbell crowd (Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein).
Though I doubt it was his plan, Scientology preserved his legacy.
