I too dislike the mentality of "despite being stated to be stronger, these characters have less impressive feats so they must be weaker", especially in a show with such a linear system of power escalation as this one. After a certain point, feats just become meaningless and power-scaling is the only way to properly establish a threat. Once you can destroy any single object in all of creation, the only way to establish that someone is stronger is by having them beat you up, because beating you becomes the highest feat possible at that point.
Also, having characters arbitrarily destroy planets and stars for no reason except to establish they can is useless padding, especially when everyone else in the cast can do the same.
Speaking of feats: it's funny that Kachi Katchin is still shit in the manga, with Magetta able to break it easily, especially since the previous arc showed Fused Zamasu using regular Katchin as a projectile.

The talk of feats reminds of Toriko, and how ridiculous everything got in that series. A lot of people liked that, but it got to a point (for me, at least) where it all started to blur together and be meaningless because the absurd strength levels had already been thoroughly established, and it got to a point where a lot of the new feats didn't really establish anything we shouldn't have already known and felt more like padding because they often didn't accomplish anything except looking cool. Which is fine, I want stuff to look cool, but at some point I also want the stuff that looks cool to mean something in the story.

This wouldn't have happened if Dragon Ball got off Earth for more than Namek...
Cell's Solar System destroying Kamehameha could've been realized...if he fired a beam in the sky and he destroyed a bunch of planets effortlessly before the beam ever dissipated.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Oh come on. It can be that bad.

...Well, I can admit when I'm full of shit. You all know this. That's why you tolerate me.
One Strip! One Strip!@ LSBK: Ah...never mind.
Apparently Tori-Bot/Akira was born in age 720. Akira Toiryama was born in 1955. Meaning that 0 in the Dragonball calendar is 1235 CE. Nice to know, since it allows us to date the different sagas:
- Beginning of Dragonball: age 749/1984
- Red Ribbon Army arc: age 750/1985
- King Piccolo Arc: age 753/1988
- Piccolo Jr Arc: age 756/1991
- Beginning of Z: age 761/1996
- Namek arc: age 762/1997
- Android Arc: age 767/2002
- Buu Arc: age 774/2009
- Battle of Gods: age 778/2013
- Resurrection F: age 779/2014
- Tournament of Power: age 780/2015
- End of Z: age 784/2019
- Future Trunks Arc(alternate timeline) age 796/2031
×5 Technically it was a normal Earth until a meteor filled with Gourmet Cells hit it and turned it into the size of Jupiter. Considering the protagonist use those same Gourmet Cells as their source of power, it's probably okay to assume that their Earth is way stronger.

Never knew Gohand was a zombie...
Toriko Earth sounds pretty ridiculous.

Mistare seems to feel the same way many do about the tournament.
One Strip! One Strip!

There is nothing indicating he ever thought he was strong enough to take the Androids without eating a bunch of people first, and as I said, he had no way of knowing that the Androids in the main timeline were stronger than the ones from his own.
You're trying to justify something that is never implied, and ultimately is irrelevant.
