No more omnipotents?

Why is it that no one in tier 0 is considered omnipotent anymore.

Because right now I see tier 0 as high outerverse instead of absolute infinity. Why is that?
 
Omnipotence is such an strange thing, no being in the wiki can be considered omnipotent, the reason is that omnipotent IMO is a contradictory concept, omnipotence= literally limitless, the thing is that you can always add more power, Also, the difference of power between 1-As and 0 between verses is unquantifiable as they too boundless, but they can show some limitation, but per example its impossible to know if a tier 0 is> 1-A that isnt from the same verse, 1-A and 0 is based on hierarchies, 1-As/0s are beyond our system, but its impossible to count anyone as truly omnipotent, you can always add more.

It's not contradictory if you use "logical omnipotence."

And your argument that you can keep adding power doesn't really stack up. If we equate omnipotence with infinity, you can still try to add more, yet you won't really be adding anything. Infinity + some arbitrary amount is still infinity.

For this reason infinity is thought to be completely abstract and not oberserved in nature. But omnipotence isn't based on infinity but rather a maximally great being, which need not be infinite, since infinity isn't assumed to be a real thing.

Thus, there can be only one omnipotent being. If there is a more powerful being, then the previous being was not maximally great and thus wasn't omnipotent. So it would be kind of pointless to have an omnipotent being (like God) listed in this wiki because it would always come out on top. Nothing can beat omnipotence, and there can't be multiple omnipotent beings as it would create a paradox--an unstoppable force vs immovable object type of paradox.
