This reminds me of one that comes up sometimes on whowouldwin.
In Worm there is a character, Contessa. Her power is that (entire web serial spoilers)
spoiler
an alien supercomputer in another dimension is connected to her brain. It’s so powerful that she imagines an outcome and it simulates the entire world and gives her a series of actions she can take to achieve that goal, which can be as simple as where when and how to move around and make attacks to win a fight, to as complicated and open ended as “how do I prevent unspecified threats from ending the world.” The alien supercomputer also makes sure she is incapable of screwing up its perfect instructions via human error or slow reaction speeds.
Her only weakness is that physically she’s a very fit middle-aged woman, not superhumanly strong.
Whowouldwin consistently insists that this absolutely unfairly strong character couldn’t possibly beat Batman.
That’s absolutely insane. Never heard of this, but couldn’t she literally just get a rifle, a couple of boards, a stopwatch, and a protractor, and literally just shoot a gun into the air and hit batman in the head from 2 miles away? Couldnt she hack any computer including all of Batman’s shit? They are very close to saying Batman could toss a cheeky batarang at God
At one point she performs a relatively similar stupid gun trick and

removes the part of another superhuman’s brain that lets them control their powers, by shooting them in the head with a handgun in the exact right spot to turn off their powers without killing them or otherwise causing brain damage.
But she’s not their special boy, Batman, so they’re like “Batman can dodge bullets, because one writer in 2006 wrote a comic where he did that one time, and therefore he’d just dodge the bullet and speed blitz her.”

Yeah, that is easily within her capabilities.

Lol clearly someone got stuck writing batman when they wanted some other superhero
