Probably because the show wasn't really just about him (not to mention that making other characters more powerful than the main character helps to add depth to the canon as well as adding challenges for the main character).

It was never specified in the show, however based on the conversations between Gwen and Verdona, and Gwen and Kevin, the reason that she would lose her humanity was because she wouldn't know how to control her powers. She has gained more control over them in Omniverse, so that could be at least part of it.

If Gwen is the most powerful being in her dimension, that would probably make her the most powerful Anodite as well.
