Ok so I don’t really like make site-wide changing thread like this but I think this problem is kinda huge so.. here we go
Let’s make this short. Lifting a heavy object for a long period of time is way way more difficult than a short period. Let’s say some character can lift a 400kg object, just below the maximum threshold for Peak Human strength. Let’s say he can lift this object for 1 hour. This would just scale him way higher than any peak human. But a lot of pages place characters like this into like Peak Human to Superhuman. Ok I don’t wanna disrespect any Athletes but let’s face it all of those heavy lifters only lift an object for what, a few seconds? Just take that video for the 545kg feat for example. That heavy lifter only lift the object for like, 5 seconds. Few fictional would have a feat where a character lift an object near a time of a few seconds. Applying this to a lot of characters just feels like not getting them to the tier where they should have gotten to
