Can't believe I actually read through 17 pages of this sh*t...that's not to say it wasn't compelling. 😛
Anyway, I only have one, but somewhat important point to make. Just because a feat is accomplished by two parties doesn't mean both parties released an equal distribution of energy/power to accomplish said feat. Therefore, (and I haven't read the issue so please correct me if I'm missing something) the energy released to destroy the planet didn't necessarily have to be a 50/50 split between Hulk and Shrulk.
Do what you want with that.

it's true, but without anything quantifiable to indicate otherwise, it's generally the best bet to just split it down the middle. At least imo.
Originally posted by nimbus006Correct. That is one of the factors that makes shared feats ambiguous, and extremely hard to quantify for each character involved.

Like you said, it didn't have to be an even split. The energy Betty released, for instance, could have caused 75% of the destruction, and the energy Hulk released could have caused 25% of the destruction (or vice versa.) There's just no way to accurately gauge feats like that, unless specifics are given in the actual comic.
It was certainly an uber feat for Betty and Hulk... Just can't be sure HOW uber as of now (which is why most tend to revert to the 50/50 thing.)
