Analysis
YPS-4
Slight power edge
YPS-3
Tatsumaki has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. DNA tells a different story: Tatsumaki: self-determination and identity, Tanjiro Kamado: how much the universe protects them. These are different character shapes, not different power levels.
