Thought alone
Betrayal cauterizes empathy. Darkness as load-bearing trait, bonds gated by utility.
Matchup frame
Large tier gap
Raw power is tilted before the argument starts. The interesting part is what survives after that gap is admitted.

YPS-7
In a direct clash, Hajime Nagumo wins: 5 tiers of separation is a gap that DNA edges alone cannot close. Hajime Nagumo's DNA tells a broader story: their narrative is built around raw destructive ceiling / self-determination and identity. Edward Elric's identity is more narrowly defined by comparison.
