A lot of different forms of the same concept - reality manipulation - have been defined by the wiki, and it can be hard to keep track of them all. Most recently, the Fifth and Sixth Dimensions of DC Comics have been defined not as "spatial dimensions", per se, but as "governing layers of being/reality".
Similarly, Destiny defines its para-causal forces as forces "superordinate to mere material physics", setting up the powers wielded by Guardians, Hive Gods and others as beyond material physics.
Meanwhile, in some settings, reality-warping is done via the manipulation of material physics, such as Doctor Manhattan in the original Watchmen (DC Rebirth has put him above Mxyzptlk, however).
Is there a way these different forms of reality-warping are tiered based on the nature of their function?
