Surely, myth and historical fact are hard to disentangle after all these centuries. I doubt if the Buddhist writers intended to snub anyone.

He is shown as a very wise and able ruler too. Unfortunately Hanuman and Ravana dont find mention in it as the Buddhists probably wanted to eschew violent details. Still they go out of the way to portray Lord Rama as a great person. This is a snub to those persons who would portray Lord Rama as a mythical figure. Long Live Lord Rama and his devotees.
