I understand the concept, from the comics to film, of Thor and Hulk always arguing over "strongest there is" member in the Avengers.From what was shown on-screen in Ragnarok and per the forum rules on feats as the trump card, it's clear that the movie settled the debate on the MCU side. Thor, once serious and in super mode, beats the Hulk, and would have outright if not for GM interfering.
I like both the characters, don't really have a favorite, the feats shown are the feats shown.
Feats like being handcuffed or held down in a restraining chair?(Thor)
Or do you mean feats like knocking Surtur's sideways after he bigger than the Asgardian mountains, or smashing through the Arena wall or simply by ripping through metal like pape by walking on to the Quinjet. Or tearing up the Hulkbuster Armor which was Tony and Bruce's best tech or dropping in and just running through a concrete bunker to take it out.
Because being held down in a chair by restraints or held in a cell are such great feats.
In the fight itself, the only blow aisde from the storm enhanced punches that actually really impacted the Hulk from Thor was when he timed his charge and used his own charge and momentum against him. Thor's punces and Hammer blows may have buckled a knee or turned his head but the the few times and it was only a few that Hulk hit Thor it launched him across the Arena or pounded him into a crater. Even a kidney punch from behind, or trying to choke him out with an arm lock around his neck didn't have any impact on the Hulk.
So as the feats are show, all you have are two storm ehanced punches. Not one shotting a Chitauri leviathan and stopping it dead it's tracks or the many other strength feats.
I am willing to give the Thor his due but saying the MCU puts the debate to rest in the face of the screenwriter saying the opposite is just opinion. You have yours, Hulk fans have theirs as it was intended to be.
