In my view the liver thing has gotten nowhere near the amount of coverage Mickey Mantle’s did. And Mickey was just as widely respected and even hero-worshiped as Jobs.
Never heard of him. I heard of Jobs, like, several hundred times.
I think it’s a generational thing. When I mentioned it to my parents, they knew instantly what I was asking about and even knew the details of the Mantle thing. (Neither one is a pro sports fan, and their main familiarity is with football, not baseball.)

Oh, so he is a US baseball player. We get more iPods over here than we do baseball. That explains it. Worldwide relevance.
