Well, he's my favorite character aside from Poppy, but this has been a long time coming. At the moment, Aurelion Sol is sitting at 3-B for several reasons, some of which are more justified than the others. I'm going to go down the line and explain why these are not good justifications for his current tier and what he should be at instead, in my opinion.
1. "Galaxies exist by my will": This is the first real justification for his 3-B status, as all previous don't come close to such a rating. While this may seem convincing at first, once you know what Aurelion is you will understand why this isn't actually 3-B.
Aurelion Sol is a cosmic creator. The forger of stars across the sky. He makes stars and by his power this continue to exist. This is what he means by "galaxies", he means the stars in the galaxies. He doesn't mean the entire galactic structure, and has never made any planets, dark matter, and has never destroyed such number of stars with an omnidirectional blast.
Even if he could end galaxies in a single go, dark matter and all, he is still doing it by targeted destruction; by un-making his creations. This is a targeted attack and would require the GBE of all destroyed bodies to be taken into account, but it would not qualify for 3-C or 3-B.
Even if the entire galactic structure of said galaxies was held together by ASol and he could destroy it all in one go with an omnidirectional blast, this isn't 3-B, it's 3-C. You have to cover the distance between Galaxies to get 3-B, something ASol has never shown or is implied to be able to do.
2. Tearing the fabric of the universe: Unquantifiable spatial destruction. Nothing really else to say about this other than it is certainly not 3-B.
3. Stated to have made entire galaxies: Except this wasn't said about ASol. This was a concept designer's line about what Aurelion was thought about being while he was being developed. ASol himself, as a finished and fleshed our character, doesn't get a statement like this. This is exclusively a developer's idea that was used in the creation of the character, not a feat for the character himself.
4. Size of a galaxy: Same problem as above. Don't believe me? Well look at the pictures in those links on his page as well. Those dragons are not ASol. They are conceptual possibilities for ASol. This absolutely doesn't effect the true finalized character that is the Star Forger.
5. Fiery Oblivion to galaxies: This is from Ashen Lord, not vase ASol. So he could get a key, but even then nothing is stated of the time it would take to being said fiery oblivion.
TLDR: ASol's stats come from potentially misinterpreted lines, developer concepts of a character that didn't exist yet, and a feat from a different version of ASol that needs his own key.
ASol is responsible for the creation and main fence in every star in the sky. Don't believe that he made them all? Well ASol begs to differ: "Which star is your favorite? I made that one." This indicates every star that exists he has made, and as such this qualifies him for 4-A using the calculation for destroying every star in the universe.
So Base ASol 3-B -> 4-A and Ashen Lord gets his own key with "At least 4-A, likely 3-B".
