"Space-Time Manipulation" Hainara Kuon rose to the top LV5 position, which indeed surprised everyone in Academy City. While some had doubts about this, there weren't many. The majority believed in the official fairness of Academy City, and the term "space-time" sounded quite grand, seemingly comparable to vector manipulation in the eyes of the average person.
In truth, Fang Zheng played a word game here. The term "space-time" refers to "time" and "space," and with Hainara Kuon's powers, she could barely use them, but she was far from being able to wield them freely like Fang Zheng. Hence, it's "manipulation" rather than "control" of space-time.
From the perspective of power dominance, Hainara Kuon falls short compared to Shihou Souki. Currently, she can only "go with the flow" in manipulating space-time and cannot freely dominate it. So relatively speaking, Hainara Kuon's ability isn't particularly strong.
