One of the Best Rebuttals i've found so far (which i completely agree with)
There's a difference between having a prefference to a Superman who, while still extraordinary when compared to humans, is much more tame in power, and saying that it was him having been weaker that made him relevant. What's relevant is his actions, his motivations and his personality when confronted with everything that represents evil in this world, his ability to inspire the good in people and stand out for the weak, when he has it in his power to impose what he thinks and much more, not whether he can bench-press a tank or a planet. It's so asinine to think that him being 'weaker' makes him more relevant, that it's a tad sad.
For all the talk of a weaker Superman - he doesn't seem to realize that Superman was still above anybody else in his Universe in the Golden Age. And once his Universe was expanded to include Gods and other heroes, he became more powerful. A 'Golden Age' powerlevel Superman won't work in a shared Universe, where there's space travellers with wishing rings and extra-dimensional gods attacking Earth. Superman's power adapts through all mediums - but he is still supposed to be the pinacle of heroism, as far as everything is concerned.
Wanting to see him hurt by tanks and wrecking balls is fine. Does that make him more inspiring or relatable, than when he stands up to Darkseid fighting for humanity's free will and soul until his last breath? Not for me. I can't do either, and I'd rather read of something more fantastical, than to see Superman get depowered and "realistical" because it supposedly makes him better.
Just because he is godlike, doesn't mean he can't be challenged. Challenge isn't about being hurt physically with human-made machines from the last century. That doesn't make him seem more incredible, or more worthwhile to read. If anybody actually thinks his relevany is dependent on that, he's missing the point. Big. Rags Morales hates a Superman who is even remotely powerful. Ok. I get it. And thankfully, he's not writing the book. But his "love love love love weak Superman, because he gets hurt by tanks and thus is more relevant!" is inane, from every logical standpoing.
