Yeah, it's all cos of the Hollywood Effect (I don't even know if that's the term for it... fuck it, I'm going with it). If the character is too powerful to portray (especially in group movies) then they get nerfed accordingly. If the character is too weak or their power isn't 'flashy' or 'impressive' enough, they get upgraded. So world-breakers like Thor, Scarlet Witch, Doctor Strange and Hulk (who could all put up more than a decent fight against Thanos by themselves, had to get nerfed) while on the flip-side, America's golden boy (who pales in comparison to almost everyone) had to get bumped up so he wouldn't seem redundant.

But yeah, need to sort out where EC fits in these condition pages hehe.
