I believe Kinoko Nasu himself nerfed Shiki in order to fit in even more stupidly overpowered characters into his universe. I believe after the retcon, Shiki is only barely a match for the likes of "Servant"-class spirit such as Saber (Fate/stay night) in a defensive fight (which, admittedly is still pretty impressive).

Wrong Shiki. that was Shiki Tohno, who has inferior (sustained; short bursts in Nanya mode are on par with Ryougi) physical abilities and an additional handicap of needing to understand something's concept of death, whereas Shiki Ryougi does not, as her third personality is Akasha. Which means she automatically understands the concept of death for everything.

And S119's support means that the only one in debate now is Shiki v SCP, which will pass in four more days.
