Topichonestly, is it that big a deal Billie Eillish doesn't know who Van Halen is?

I'm over a decade older than she is and listen to a good amount of classic rock and the only things I know about Van Halen are:

-formed in Pasadena, CA (only remember this because I'm from LA)
-members Eddie Van Halen, his brother ___ Van Halen, and David Lee Roth, later replaced by Sammy Hagar

that's it as far as their biography goes. i only know these because as a kid I used to watch those VH1 restrospectives (Behind the Music, I Love the 80s, etc)

music-wise, I can't even name a single Van Halen album. I know the names of 5 Van Halen songs -- Jump, Hot for Teacher, Running with the Devil, Eruption, and Hot for Teacher. Out of those, the only one I actually "know know" is Jump. I can hum that synth line and familiar with the "Jump!" in the chorus. Those other 4, literally only know the titles. I just listened to them right now and none of them sound familiar, except for that little riff before the chorus in Panama, weirdly enough. Even that big "PANAMA" in the chorus didn't sound familiar.
