You can have your space-time, reality, absolute, whatever, but when I am a god, I'm picking life and death, that's my gimmick, my theme. I'm calling shotgun on it. Got it?
Life is so much better. I'd be able to use it to make for myself a supreme waifu goddess with an eternal bond and love for me that has the power to grant Absolute Wishes.
But I think if it was creation and destruction instead, it would be much different topic than life and death. We would have different expectations, and views of how to use it. Half of this fandom are nigh-pacifists while others want to be selfish conquerors. I think it's pretty obvious who wants what.
