You think Daly's Superman is anywhere near the comicbook version, moving so fast people can't see, moving planets, etc.?
Smallville was most popular from Seasons 1-4, where Clark never pushed planets or had worldbreaking power. On those seasons, he didn't even fly and would get challenged by the Spider-man level villain of the week.
No reason for Superman or others in his League for being more powerful than Ultimate Thor or Iron Man. His personality is what makes him interesting and likable. MCU Captain America isn't even mid-tier in the films, and he's wildly popular.
