In the vs debating community, people generally go by the notion that what's shown in-series > author intent. If we put what the authors intended as the most reliable info source for other series' scaling, for example Ben 10, what we'd end up with would be a race of omnipotents who are surpassed by their babies. Also, using super low-end feats to scale someone's power would result in a lot of weird ratings for a plethora of different characters. Going off that kind of thing everywhere would result in below-planet level Goku, universal+ SMT protagonists and town level Bill Cipher, among other things, mostly because the amount of instances of them being hurt/endangered by random stuff > their high-end feats in terms of quantity.

I mean yeah, it only makes sense gameplay-wise not to get easy access to a broken ally in late part 1. Though considering that apoptoses races > any other race not related to angels in-game, I could make the argument that they are pretty OP from a gameplay standpoint as well.
