Analysis
YPS-2
Slight power edge
YPS-3
Aqua has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. DNA tells a different story: Hestia: constant growth arc, Aqua: how much the universe protects them. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
