Which is an arbitrary limit. The example is killing the Saiyans. But they could have wished an asteroid hit their pod and it flies into the sun. Problem solved. Shenron isn't weak, the characters are just stupid.
DBZ does not work at all when people try and pick it apart like its Hunter x Hunter or something. The show is just a bunch of really cool stuff that doesn't hold up to the slightest scrutiny. Nothing that happens in DBZ could be made more interesting by wondering "What if [x character] did [really clever thing]?" because deep strategy and careful manipulation of properties/rules is diametrically opposed to Toriyama's writing.
"What if DBZ but with at least one or two people that can both fight have an IQ higher than 85?" is a cool premise but its pretty close to Hunter x Hunter or Jujutsu Kaisen.
