1) He's using his own strength. He's not calling on an ally to bring the water to him so that he can drown an opponent.

Nah according to your original point the water isn't a part of his natural arsenal so he's cheating.

I've constantly based my argument around Kong using it as his primary strategy.

That's not where we started, it's where we got to after you push the goalposts a bit but definitely not where we started.

And as someone has already pointed out to you, Kong has used weapons as his primary strategy in all of these movies. Just because he's solely used the axe instead of picking up random shit doesn't mean it's not a character trait that's been there since the beginning

But there hasn't been a time where one of them has been helpless without a weapon until now.

Remind me how Kong beat Godzilla in the original? Oh yeah, magical electric powers out of nowhere. But an axe takes more away from his character.

That undersells Ghidorah, but whatever.

Eventually you'll understand that these are portrayals of TOHO Kaiju and not piece for piece the same monster.

But I guess until then you'll continue to ignore or disregard anything that downplays Godzilla while making up reasons to remove the things that make Kong look good.
