That's why I focused not only on power, but also on the character. I know Hinata had way less screen time, but the direction her character took was very consistent from the beginning - which is zero progress.
But even if we took a look at power alone - she had a giantic advantage not only over Sakura, but over most of Konoha colleagues. She had a powerful Dojutsu. But either she lacked spirit or talent to make any use of it.
You do realize you're again comparing a MC to a side character who didn't even have half the screen time of what Sakura had and who wasn't trained by a legendary Sannin.
As far as character goes her character is far better than Sakura's, she didn't drag her team down 99.9% of the time, she didn't need saving 99.9% time and she wasn't selfish. Above all she had the courage to face opponents like Pein to save Naruto while Sakura sat on her ass begging Naruto to save her...ag...gain.
In terms of growth, again she wasn't a MC so she didn't get to show much progress but she did improve a lot compared to part 1 and was acknowledged by both Neji and Hiashi. Created a superior version of TLF while Sakura has no such feat under her bealt even though she was taught and trained by a Sannin.
So you may hate all you want, but Hinata is a MUCH BETTER character compared to Suckura. In all aspects.


.....If Sakura really was worried about her duty as a medical ninja then she'd have been working to heal and save the injured while Naruto was fighting Pein. Instead she just sat there and watched the fight and her friend almost getting captured. That medical ninja shit is the dumbest excuse that one could give in that situation.
