That'’s correct. People are looking for confirmation bias, and don'’t seem to consider that one, the show isn'’t _*about_* hard power levels (even if it can be neat to discuss who might win, etc), two, she isn'’t infallible.
...
…also it'’s probably debatable if Celestia was even being 100% _*honest_* when she said that "more*“I raw abilidon’ty thaink anyI’ve ever cothme across a unicorn" with your raw abilities”* line, since back in S1, the word "“alicorn"” didn'’t exist, they were "“unicorns"” as per the series premiere, "[the first thing we hear via narration/lore...":…](https://youtu.be/8mVAqn3C5vI) so she'’d therefore have more "“raw ability"” than Luna, and she called Sombra a "“unicorn"” as well in S3'’s premiere. Do note how that sort of question is only using things within the first three seasons, and the contexts they were established under, not even including say, Sunset Shimmer. (and no, I'’m not arguing "“Starlight is stronger than her,"” that'’s not really the point per se, only for the "“definitely untouchable"” talking point)
You could more convincingly argue for it being the case for Twilight...… and even then, she isn'’t one, except in the all-too expansive definitions people have that apply to almost every interesting character ever.

Twilight both saw herself inside of her, and saw the benefits therein of getting it by her side.-~~Let'’s be honest, it was probably a better idea than Celestia'’s regarding Discord.-

~(By the by, I hate to say it, but this"[thread in particular":](/forums/pony/topics/starlight-glimmer-what-is-the-opinion-of-her-still) kinda _*sucks_*, because it'’s really not that _*active_* anymore, hence why I'’d generally prefer discussing here generally, lol. It'’s not that I can'’t handle dissent, it'’s just...… that.)~
