Same tier
YPS does not separate them cleanly, so the comparison turns on DNA shape: motive, risk, bonds, and story pressure.

Power-matched
YPS-4
Tier-matched. Power scale does not separate them; this is purely a DNA matchup. Denji's DNA tells a broader story: their narrative is built around how much the universe protects them / who they fight for. Tatsumaki's identity is more narrowly defined by comparison. Same tier, different identities: this is the most interesting kind of comparison.
