In the final battle of Revelation, Anankos creates a vortex that sucks several islands into a world filled with stars
"But JSW, last time it was determined that Anankos never made the dimension because he's never stated to have done so!"
That's correct, but context matters too, such as how everyone reacted to the dimension:
Takumi: Impossible... This is...impossible... There's no way we can defeat that...
Leo: Damn it! What can we possibly do? The world is done for...
Xander: Hah. Fate is a funny thing. I never thought my final moments would be alongside a Hoshidan prince.
Ryoma: I couldn't have said it better myself. But I won't die so easily. If our time has come, I'll meet it on my feet!
Azura: It can't be... Have we truly failed? Was everything for naught?
Their immediate reaction to the dimension is "We're all going to die"
Sure, it could be that Anankos has regained his full power, but they could've said it when Anankos actually regained his full power rather than waiting for him to take them on a field trip, which to me makes it sound less like taking them to space and more of a showing of power.
Of course, my opinion of it being a showing of power is clearly not going to be enough, so let me tell you why it has to be a pocket dimension.
Anankos: ... So...Lilith has left. That stupid pawn! She knows that, like myself, she will lose most of her power when she leaves here... Well, it matters not. (Source: Hidden Truths 2)
If the only alternative to a pocket dimension is space, then Anankos would clearly be leaving Valla and then there would be absolutely no point to regaining his true power from Garo in the first place, so there's no way they're just going to space
Tl;Dr (Cause I know I probably worded this very poorly) I believe Anankos is 4-A because the dimension was (imo) treated as a showing of power and the only other alternative is Anankos going to space and losing all of his power
