Nothing prevents you from using good ingredients and practicing till you can generate a really good pizza. The one tool you would have trouble replicating, a really high-temp oven, only counts as important for a limited set of pizzas. And you can take steps to get a high-temp oven, if you want to go all-out.

I've done that and on a good day I can maybe replicate the quality of a good place. Surpassing is not happening.
Then you aren't a very good cook.
I don't think dexterdog is referring to places like Pizza Hut or Papa Johns.
A person who occasionally (let's say once every other month?) cooks themselves a pizza is not going to do a better job at it than a pizza chef (closer to gourmet than fast food) who is making pizzas for 8 hours a day - every day.
Pizza Hut and Papa Johns are to pizza what a Big Mac is to a hamburger.
And it's not just the ingredients and dough. Very few people have an oven capable of cooking a pizza the way it needs to be cooked.
