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: how much the universe protects them, Meruem: self-determination and identity. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
