That's fair. It's also possible Derrick was referring to their powerlevels after the timeskip as their Ben 10,000 counterparts. Personally I'm of the stance that WOG statements should only be used in VS debates as supporting evidence because things can get a bit messy.

Like you say, writers don't really care about the science of the show. They care about entertaining us and so I don't think they fully comprehend the power of their characters. They're the author so whatever they say goes but I can't help but think of the time Kevin Feige caused an outrage when he said Captain Marvel is the most powerful Avenger in the MCU and can move planets. I'm fine with the latter statement because she can do that in the comics but I'm a bit hesitant to subscribe to the former because while she is certainly one of the most powerful, I don't think she's as powerful as Thor was with Stormbreaker as he overpowered all 6 Infinity Stones. Even in Endgame, while she plays a vital role she doesn't have any feats to justify that statement.

With Atomix, I feel that he has the potential but two other aliens have feats beyond him as of the end of Omniverse, Feedback absorbing the Big Bang and Gravattack creating a black hole. It's a shame that we didn't get to see more of Atomix because all we have to gauge his power is three episodes, one of which was just getting destroyed by Malgax.
