Clark held back. When he took the kid gloves off he raped them. Norrin with a similar mindset would rape as well

True. Surfers' pacifist nature makes him pull his punches more
Elite battered him worse than worse than anyone this side of Doomsday.

I gave up trying to figure out your reasons for shoving Superman down everyone's throats ages ago, abhi.

Does Surfer get to use his powers in the same manner Superman did?
By that I mean, the writer had Superman using his powers in clever and unusual ways. Oh, I'm sure there are other times he has used his powers in such a manner, this is Superman, with 1001 appearances in a month alone, but we can all agree he was doing FAR more than just 'punch punch laser eyes' type fighting.
With that said:
Menagerie - was taken out by toxins which disrupted the bond between her and her beasties. Surfer can replicate that.
The Hat - was suffocated through lack of air. Surfer can replicate that.
Coldcast - Was BFRd. Surfer can replicate that.
Chester - focussed concussion, although I believe Surfer can also do the lobotomy attack (by just transmuting it).
As I said, his use of such powers are rare - he mainly flies around and blasts. But just as Superman didn't just punch, as he does in most of his appearances, if Surfer can use his powers in clever ways like Supes, then sure. And with the increased power variety he has, he has an even easier time of it.

The moon they cracked was one of Neptune's moons:

Triton is the main one - accounts for about 90% of the moons. The others are all tiny - 200 km, or in a lot of cases, 50km in diameter. Most of them have a density 1 to 2 times that of water.
Still impressive, but nowhere near as impressive as when taken at face value.
