Different laws
Physical output and narrative or authority power answer different questions. This page compares force, leverage, and plot weight separately.

Different power types make direct strength comparison misleading. What matters here is the character identity gap: what each existence does to the world, not who hits harder. DNA tells a different story: Muzan Kibutsuji: moral cost they'll pay, Cid Kagenou: self-determination and identity. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
