Thuis is DIRECTLY AFTER his interview in 1981 published in 1982where he never explicitly states that Phoenix/Jean is past Storm level.
In X-treme 5 we have Storm saying how she will ascend. This is written by Claremont as well.

You lie again. 1979 isn't RIGHT before DP saga, it was three months before it when Claremont made it. That picture you showed? Happened ten months after Claremont made the statement. Claremont referred to the Green suited Phoenix, because Dark Phoenix had not even been created yet.
He doesn't have the ability to see into the future to my infortmation, and I doubt that he was referring into things that had not even happened yet. You have no proof that he was thinking about Dark Phoenix during that interview, because all proof points into that he did not. Because he was speaking about "Phoenix", not "Dark Phoenix". That's all the proof there is, no matter how you try to twist it.
And she was not near Dark Phoenix levels as Roguestorm. She could barely stop the storm she had created.
Harnessing the powers of millions of stars doesn't make her even near Phoenix level. Like said before, Phoenix is a universal entity. Storm has never even been near galactic level, much less universal.
Millions of stars? Speck of DUST to someone who can manipulate the UNIVERSE with a gesture.
I've already admitted that Storm has higher raw power level then Magneto, haven't I? That doesn't mean that Magneto can't still beat her. It's not the level of power you use, it's the way that you use it, and Magneto is far more experienced and skilled with his power then Storm is with hers, and has already beaten her multiple times, with ease.
By the way, who wrote those defeats of Storm by Magneto? Claremont. Who wrote that defeat of Phoenix by Magneto? Claremont again. So even the guy you hail as some sort of god of comics stil thinks that Magneto >>>> both of them. 💃
But, Magneto aside...you simply don't have any proof that Storm is in the level of Phoenix Force. Because she isn't. Claremont was not referring to anything else then the Phoenix that existed during that time. Storm has never done anything that even approaches the level of Phoenix Force. The statement is outdated and Phoenix's power levels have been increased multiple times after any interview you quote, so they have no base.
In nutshell? Your ridicolous claims don't have any sort of base in canon, and thus, as you have no tangible proof, your claims don't matter in this board.
