Bench-presses the Earth for 5 days:
- without sunlight
- barely breaks a single drop of sweat but only because he's been away from the sun for so long
- to be tested further a pan-dimensional wormhole would need to be accessed that would suck the entire Earth inside of it

And on the other hand, Superman benchpresses Earth's weight for 5 days straight also was recorded in Superman's bio to showcase his strength

That's.....very different, for the reason I will explain.
3,000 gamma bombs that had no quantity attached to it. Here, we are specifically told the quantity of kilogrammes that was lifted, and the time frame. Hence, different.

Everything else had quantity to it like 100000 exploding suns and every other ft that happened in that story that you discredited when 3000 gamma bombs were mentioned.

So they quantified the suns and their size etc, did they? My point still remains the same - we were given a specific scientific unit of mass (Kilogrammes), so I am sure you are bringing a similar amount from that story, right? Kg/tonnes?
Plus, we have the handbook in line with what the comic states.
The scene is Superman tries to push his limits, and asks a scientist to scientifically test his strength . Considering the context, I don't think either would go/want hyperboles in this situation.
So I don't know why we shouldn't take it as face value, rather than, you know, projecting our headcanon into it and declaring it questionable
^ There isn't a solid reason to not take it at face value. But apparently that same writer had Superman exceed those comic-scientist measured levels and fight a zombie dragon w/ mountain-toppling punches...
... so if you take the whole thing at face value... that comic writer has planet-benching strength associated w/ mountain-toppling punches. Weird? Sure. But, that's what the comic portrayed.
