I would expect it to evoke a greater sense of achievement than this.

Minato couldn't kill Kurama (important source of Nuclear Deterrent), couldn't seal Kurama (remember how the Raikage have access to a convenient sealing pot?), and so had to resort to Naruto becoming a Jinchuriki.

Though in my opinion, Minato is close enough anyway to count as someone holding his own against a Biju, regardless of whether you believe he can defeat one. Because remember that Kurama is the strongest Biju by a wide margin, even stronger than Gyuki.

I also don't think this is really the place to discuss this sort of thing.

The Raikage's style is simply heightened hand-to-hand combat -with an invincible lightning aura. Minato's style is similar (offense and defense via speed) but vastly different (teleportation based)
