oh i'm not disagreeing with that.. feats do tend to make most arguments.. my current one is superman even as a baseline kryptonian could be slightly.. stronger/faster/ and we would never know. because its such a slight edge.. it can't be drawn. :P
i'm just saying that its hard to argue supermans feats are baseline human... when there's no way to prove alien=human. although we can argue that they are similar...
like superman gets hit with kryptonite bullets and doesn't die... wtf! but theres a small rock of kryptonite 6 feet in front of him and he is shriveled up on the ground! crazy!

baseline kryptonians have always been portrayed as being about equal to humans, though. every time superman has lost his powers, he's been like an average person. he's been bloodied by punches etc.
he doesnt shrivel up. that's smallville. so shame on you!
