Surfer might be stronger, faster, more powerful, have more powers, is more durable, but... uh... he loses (?).
Isn't Dr Manhattan omniscent and omnipresent with godlike powers? Just no feats?
no.
Dr. Manhattan is only aware of his own timeline and his direct sphere of influence which isnt saying much since he doesnt act on but simply observes.
Silver Surfer actually possesses cosmic awareness which grants him a limited form of omniscience on a greater scope then Manhattan plus time manipulation as well difference is SS can act on outside of what is suppose to happen.

i know plenty about nimrod (which you actually know). you're just underestimating superman or overestimating nimrod.
versatility is not an automatic win. it never is.
Being a jack of all trades can still get you completely fubared by a true master of a skill...or someone completely stacked against you..
Taskmaster for example can duplicate almost fighting style but he'd get destroyed in a hand to hand against hulk
The problem with the nimrod argument is that it's not like he's done what surfer did... Analyzing gladiator and producing the specific radiation thanks to his cosmic awareness...
You associate something to nimrod as if it's verified already...
