Weird scaling in Toei profiles.

soooo

Buu Saga Goku in BASE is listed as High 3-A, alrighty.

Cell Games Gohan (and therefore Super Perfect Cell) is listed as 3-C.

wut????

CG Gohan even in toei continuity was noted to be a benchmark by Majin Vegeta and Goku by the Buu Saga and was only noted to be surpassed once they turned SSJ2


soooooo why are Toei Cell and CG Gohan noted to be literally infinitely weaker than Buu Arc Goku?

Whats the evidence Buu Arc Goku (barring SSJ3) reaches High 3-A anyways?

TLDR

Pre Division Goku is barely stronger than CG Gohan, form by form. Cell, and both Buu Arc and CG Gohan are at least relative form by form. How then are the CG ones just 3-C?

(Also, I think Other World tournament MESSES up the hell of the scaling).

There's a key for OW tournament Goku, but BARELY any time passed between CG and OW tournaments.

Goku not just wasn't noted to be much stronger if at all

Thing is that WEIGHTED Pikkon two shots Cell, yet was just somewhat superior to Base Goku.

Weighted Pikkon >~ Base Goku >>>> CG SSJ2 Gohan?

not just it doesn't make sense, but SSJ Goku was scared shitless the moment Cell was flying towards him. That wouldn't be a reaction if Goku was like 50x Cell. (Weighted Pikkon and Olibu were relative, and Buu Arc Yamcha also clowned Olibu)

7 Years Later, SSJ2 Gohan was STILL a benchmark for both Goku and Vegeta.

Pikkon's feat should be chalked up to either an outlier or just catching Cell off-guard/Cell evidently being non powered up, otherwise the scaling in the wikia just doesn't make any sense and actually contradicts the series narratively.

Gohan's Buu Saga key is him Post-Z Sword training, not during the 25th budokai

Doesn't address the rest of my argument, tho.
