Feels like death battle hyping Superman as "no limits man" has doomed them from putting him in a serious battle again, which in turn doomed Goku to be stuck with Superman.
I didn't see that but i assume it's response to Invincible wacky ass inconsistencies and Mark jobbing to every new villain of the week. Like everything with twitter, people strawman the fuck out of each other so it has no value.
I never seen anyone sane ever say "Powerscaling doesn't matter at all", people agree that belivability is important but it's not it's not worth being autistically pedantic over powerlevels and disregard every other thing on the story like battleboarders usually do. Or even when they are aware of the point, they circle back to arguing it's actually about powerscaling somehow.
If you described David vs Goliath to a powerscaler, they would say Goliath stomps due to stat advantage, feats, armor, battle IQ, etc. If you said David wins, they would either
1-Call it bad writing and plot armor
2-Call Goliath a "fraud"
3-Backtrack and say David's sling is equivalent to a gun and counts as "hax", and the message is that battle IQ > strenght, thus it's powerscaling
Reminder that versus battle wikia believes Chicken Little (you know, that one from that disney movie) is stronger than Goku.
