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.

Dominant power gap
YPS-7
In a direct clash, Hajime Nagumo wins: 4 tiers of separation is a gap that DNA edges alone cannot close. DNA tells a different story: Tanjiro Kamado: how much the universe protects them, Hajime Nagumo: self-determination and identity. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
