General matchup
The comparison is strongest when power scale, story role, and DNA dimensions are kept separate until the final read.

Analysis
YPS-3
Slight power edge
YPS-4
Roswaal L. Mathers has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. DNA tells a different story: Tanjiro Kamado: how much the universe protects them, Roswaal L. Mathers: raw destructive ceiling. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
