We know for a fact that Zilu(who is level 75) can fight against Lei Heng(who is level 83).
Chainscaling along those lines is definitely going to make this more confusing with the lines being as blurry as they are. Let's continue this train of logic: If a level 75 can fight against a level 83, then a level 70 would be able to fight them, so would a level 65 to a level 70... Except a level 65 in the form of Albina got horrifyingly mauled by a level 80, so what business do they have scaling to a Level 90 through a level 83 through a level 75 to 70?
With that said, if the WAW-ALEPH tier doesn't start at level 60 then it would most certainly start at level 70(i.e. the level of the Night Drifter when he fights Jia Xichun).
So you're just electing to ignore what Ricardo told us about a 20 level gap, then?
You seem to be confusing what I said about the Ring Maestro with that of Kira. What I specifically said was that the Ring Maestro is capable of goring the Sinners(as evidenced by Don Quixote) so the fact that Kira herself didn't get mulched by a direct hit implies that there is enough relativity for her to downscale to the WAW-ALEPH tier nothing more nothing less.
Let me highlight some things for you.
What I specifically said was that the Ring Maestro is capable of goring the Sinners(as evidenced by Don Quixote)
Kira herself didn't get mulched by a direct hit
These two statements, put together, means Kira is strong enough to match a blow that would gore the sinners. This, logically, means they are powerful enough to gore the sinners with one of her own blows. That never happens whenever Kira fights the Sinners or foes they're capable of managing. Heck, why are you still even on this when you shifted to saying stuff about level scaling, which would directly render this moot as yes, the apprentices are all in fact equals and have significant anti-feats to being comparable to Colors?
Plus it literally says in the Scaling Aid that the WAW-ALEPH tier are for those who and I quote "downscales from stronger characters, as those in this category are still able to harm and threaten the likes of Color Fixers despite explicitly being weaker." which is true for Kira
There is no earth on which Kira can harm and threaten the likes of a Color Fixer. Again, her one thing against Vespa was momentarily distracting him. Not trying to land an actual blow to weaken him despite being completely undetectable at the time and nothing really stopping her from just knifing him in an organ and backing off, she just momentarily made him defend himself by reflex so Matthias could maybe get a shot off.
Isn't that because the Doomsday Calendar is capable of instantly killing the Sinners while the Ynglong can't?
I guess that's the idea but it's a bit like having the keys to fire a nuclear bomb while someone's pointing a gun at your head, in practice it's almost impossible for them to really manage it compared to something like My Form Empties (who inofthemselves is still quite manageable and I think its gimmick has only taken out a sinner of mine once), or Der Fluchschütze who can just summon a set of minions that he can use to nuke your whole team if you don't get on top of it fast enough (as in, within that very same turn rather than the several Doomsday Clock gives you)
Does he? Cause it seems to me like DMUA's assertions are just arguments of incredulity and nothing more.
Name a person in this conversation who's taken your side.
Incredulity, the unwillingness to believe in something, is a healthy thing when you're faced with something unbelievable, and everyone else has exercised this integral part of human understanding against you. If you want to deny 4 separate people disbelieving your claims... I'm sorry, but that's willful ignorance. As a great philosopher once said, that is a true evil.
