I mean, I don‘t think there are any of these feats like you mentioned, and neither DK or K. Rool as as strong as Bowser, who even still gets knocked out by castles dropping on him in nearly every game.
Also, nah, inconsistencies between games, like Bowser being weaker or stronger makes it meaningless to try scaling them to each other.
You could use this "inconsistency" argument for literally every video game character ever. It's long been established that DB takes characters at their best, and Mario's best is complex multiversal with the Pure Hearts, as I've gone over many times in the past.
Anyways, yeah? I use inconsistency for Sonic too, but at least the multiversal opps Super Sonic fights have been scarily consistent, just that the ones he fought as Base Sonic are usually not past solar system level.
I just think it's fundamentally impossible to expect "consistency" from a franchise that's been around so long, that ensures that as characters continue to exist they will only get weaker.
The reason DB takes characters at their strongest isn't just because it's cooler, it's because "consistency" is so up for interpretation that it'd be impossible to really do anything, what is "consistent" is subjective ( then again Powerscaling as a whole is subjective )
I would argue Mario Galaxy existing at all sets the precedent for Universe ending shenanigans in the Mario verse.
