Rather an odd and unconvincing argument, don't you think?
Now you're not judging just the result but what it took to achieve them -- a rather dubious proposition at best. Whether Lugosi's accent took lots of effort or none at all is immaterial to our enjoyment of the performance.
As for Shreck being the better actor, I frankly find the assertion silly. His "performance" consists of walking around in the rat makeup.
Ultimately, Shreck and NOSFERATU offer a very simple sort of scare -- Ooh, it's ugly!
The more seductive nature of Lugosi's Dracula is much more sophisticated.
