no, neo's "powers" in the matrix are his understanding that it is not real and his mind (all the one's of each matrix for that matter) has the most potential to bend the coding. this will not work in the real world as exhibited by neo in the films, all he could do is stop machines in their tracks among other things cause of his interaction with the agent smith code.
superman's powers work on marvel earth and the matrix's earth (the darkness might pose a problem in time) cause the sun is indeed there and acts the same, this is pretty much universally true in all earth's in fictional media.
what you want to do is change neo's powers so they apply universally, but i see many problems that will stem from that since it's too much of a stretch.
if it was a robotic character like say deathlok then you have a case to use neo's full powerset, but against most characters too much has to be altered.
imo, it's not that his powers don't work outside of dc, it's that he can only hope to speed steal from his fellow dc characters cause they bring their connection to the speed force with them to the nuetral universe.
other companies characters don't develop a connection to the speed force just so flash's can manipulate them on a whim
You should care. Because the Matrix is a context-specific power up much like Mephisto's realm. A home field advantage. If he had the same powers outside of the Matrix as he does inside (as is the case with Flash who has super speed whether he's traveling through the Speed Force itself or through normal space) you might have a case.
I have no problem giving Neo his full powers so long as the fight takes place in the Matrix.

And yet you're still whining about a rule that's already in place.
Why are you so afraid of neo that you're actively trying to neuter him despite a rule that's already in place? What character do you not want to see him fight?
Honestly given that there's something of a gap between his feats and his implied powers I don't want him in any thread. He's a no-limits fallacy waiting to happen.
Is he Spider-Man level? Superman level? Galactus level?

The fact that his feat can't stay in the same place without him moving his feat at all and he can dodge hundreds of bullets.Prove this. But he doesn't.He doesn't have super combat abilities outside of the matrix,the ability to fly,stop bullets etc...

That fancy dodging could be broken through by aiming at anything waist-down, and since damn near everyone in Matrix has alleged superhuman aiming abilities, they should be able to do it.
I was also partly joking.
No, it's actually not. It is not a matter of speed so much as technique.
Edit: Are people arguing Neo should not get any of his powers in normal threads? Because that is stupid.

Whether his feet are in one place or not doesn't matter.
