Though of course he does seem to hate the weak, but he does seem to like Schala. I take it Janus had an overall ability to gauge ones strength, based off more then just one thing.

Though given how he acts after being sent to the middle ages and becoming Magus, his views of strength started to narrow down after all those years of living with the Mystics and wanting Vengance on Lavos.

Yeah they did say that, but due to the fact that Zeal chose Schala OVER Janus would natually make one assume Zeal felt that Schala was the better choice to harness the power. Granted you could always go "She didn't use him because he was a little boy" but.. yeah Zeal didn't really care. Now one reason she may have not used Janus is because Schala would have came to his defense, and that would have just caused problems.

Either way, comparison wise Magus is stronger than EVERYONE -EEVVVER- but seeing as no one had seen Janus' power at the time (because they only "felt" he was more powerful, meaning they had no reason other than a feeling) the only thing we have to go by is the people saying so. Really, power evidence is in Schala's defense due to the fact she was the one who, according to her mother, had enough power to Harness the Mammon Machine and the power of Lavos. There's a difference between potential and usable power.
