As someone who personally found the final boss of FFX easy, I can certainly see how he might pose problems. The big thing he has is kinda subtle, it's the fact that his multitarget physical in form 2 causes delay to the entire party, allowing him to overwhelm your healing especially if your PCs are pretty slow. If you don't immune petrify, his Beam attack will also both waste your turns healing it and constantly remove your buffs (and FFX buffs are insanely strong). Flipside if you both realise buffs are good and block petrify (and you get several Stoneproof accessories throughout the game in addition to any that you get as random drops or make yourself) he's got nothin'.

I have so much harder times with V or IX's bosses, because they offer crazy status effect mechanics that prove VERY problematic no matter what party setup.

IX's Grand Cross can't be shut down, but V very much can. Ribbon and Hermes Sandals stop everything except Zombie and those are respectively the best helmet in the game and the best accessory in the game even before their statusblocking properties are considered. Zombie is admittedly a nasty status to sneak through but at only a 5% chance it's not that worrying, especially with how rarely the move is used.
