Okay, this is more of a question on "why is it not" than a request to put it, but I still want to know why is Izuku's 1 000 000% Delaware Detroit Smash not 8-B and, if no good argument can be made, I request that it's made 8-B, baseline or higher.
As we know, Izuku's 100% prowess is ranked at High 8-C+ 1 000 000% is ranked at "Far Higher". However, as our "+" requires being at least half the baseline of the next tier, the biggest buff that could be given without getting to the next tier is one of two times, which is hardly "far higher". What we do know about the punch is that Izuku's punch went straight through Muscular's muscle fiber, a previously nigh-impenetrable barrier for his 100% Smashes and 100%'s lifting strength. He lifted and punched through him, as well as destroyed a few with just a flick. I also had something somewhere say that the author claimed it felt to him more like "1000%" which would give us a 10x boost to 8-B+ but can't find it now.
Shouldn't this be enough to at the very least cross the distance between tiers and put Izuku at a little above baseline 8-B, alongside with Muscular at the actual baseline? I can't see this punch doing less than that. Given his 100% Smash feat is of 6.889 Tons of TNT, all it takes is a mere 60% boost to get there. If you want to use the adrenaline boost theory of removing one's limiters, then if we have that people range from 65% to 80% of their full capacities when doing their bests, then that boost would range from 25% to 53.8% (and the average person scales to the latter scale). It isn't hard at all to imagine a Quirk squaring or just increasing that amplification and falling in 8-B range.
So, I believe Izuku's 1 000 000% Smash and Muscular's stat amped form should both be 8-B.
