Analysis
YPS-3
Slight power edge
YPS-4
Diablo has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. DNA tells a different story: Tanjiro Kamado: moral cost they'll pay, Diablo: raw destructive ceiling. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
