At this point this can apply to literally any shonen protagonist so Saitama isn't special in that regard. Goku will also pull out whatever BS powerup he needs to in order to triumph over whatever OP villain he's facing. Luffy, Deku, whatever. Saitama already lost to Garou narratively when he failed to stop him from killing everyone he knew, when he admits to Garou that he's a terrible hero, when he needs Garou to teach him how to time travel to reverse the deaths he failed to prevent. Yeah, Saitama will beat God but it's definitely going to have some serious shonen drama and power scaling behind it rather than it just being some looney tunes gag about how all his opponents simply never having remotely been at his level like with Boros and WC Garou.

Like I said, the people who try to take Saitama seriously are people who like to do vs topics because they need Saitama to not be a gag character because as long as he's a gag he cannot seriously be used in a vs topic except against other gag characters like off-screen Squirrel Girl. You're just proving my whole point.
