Meh. Although he had Matt's reality-warping powers (Matt developed them earlier, but never showed us full capabilities), he was still not powerful enough to be comparable to Spectre or Trigon.
Also, it should be noted that this was before Trigon's peak depiction in '85 (New Teen Titans)....

Still impressive, though.

That's why i said "comparable", not equal.
Up until that point, Spectre had done some ridiculous shit (even multiversal), so putting him even in the same tier is a bit too much, imho.
...especially how Moore treated Spectre in ST annual #2 (85). Which was around that same time period.

I'll make this as simplistic as possible: Monitor-tech numerically ranked Arcane's power(at the time) in the same ballpark as classic Spectre and Trigon--that's why they were used as a comparison in the first place. Obviously this does not mean he was as powerful as the aforementioned--just numerically comparable.
Easy is easy. 👆

Way to miss the point by editing out the rest of my response. 👆
Re-read my post before jumping into conclusion regarding whose comprehension skills are bad. Whether the monitor tech was saying that they're comparable or not is irrelevant to me, because what i was trying to say is: based on feats, they are not comparable.
You said, in your first response, that they are comparable, while i responded that they are not comparable based on feats.
In your 2nd response You then went on to say, yet again (ignoring my point) that they are comparable. Which i, yet again, responded to: They are not comparable based on feats....
...But for some reason, you then replied with hostility, blaming my supposedly bad comprehension skills while completely missing the point yet again (for the 3rd freakin' time).
talk about bad comprehension skills....
