Sunnis accepted the Ottoman Turks as Caliphs so no.
Nope. They did not. South Asians during British Rule may have looked up to Ottoman Caliph, but Arabs in general only accepted him as ruler as long as he had power.
Those who are stranger to Ottoman history may not know that Egyptian revolts, Druze revolts, or Wahhab's rise in Arabia.
Ottomans took the title Caliph from Circassians, its legitimacy has been questioned by Arabs often.
