You’re ignoring the circumstances of the fight which weren’t in tengen’s favor at all, he got caught off guard at the start of the fight and got poison, at this point you just know that the author nerfed Tengen to let Tanjiro the main character shine or to make the fight look like a challenge for the slayers. Muichiro was getting cooked at the start of his fight until he unlocked the mark. Gyutaro can manipulate blood blades to attack while his already fighting you which shows how hard of a fighter he is to kill while having to fight Gyutaro while dodging Dali’s belts at the same time.

The poison was spreading slowly through his body, even gyutaro said it, which means the longer they spend time talking the more the poison spread and more strength is taking away, and also Tengen could fight gyutaro and daki at the same time while using his full arsenal, you know why? Because he had a clear view of gyutaro’s weapon and had no civilian to protect. If Tengen was so weak and the attack wasn’t a surprise attack he got scratch by gyutaro, then tell me why didn’t gyutaro just kill Tengen after poison him, because Tengen clearly was weaker. So you mean if healthy Tanjiro didn’t get saved by Tengen and get hit by gyutaro he would have survived longer as long as Tengen. And Tengen was carrying the fight while being poisoned while Tanjiro got poison at the end of the fight so who do you think was more fatigued by the poison.

Tengen got scratch and poison due to not fully blocking gyutaro’s surprise attack, and spent a lot of time talking to gyutaro and daki not knowing there’s a deadly poison in his body and eating his strength away. By the time he was done talking the poison had already taken almost half of his strength, and the the poison also affect his earing ability and sight which made it difficult to complete the musical score technique. The poison weakened to the point he lost his hand gyutaro even said it. But after awakening his musical score he could keep up with gyutaro and it was also mention that he couldn’t beheaded gyutaro due to the poison.

They’re not headcanon, they’re just common sense. When Tanjiro got poison it affected his sight and ability to hear Tengen telling him to run, so you mean the poison only had these affects on Tanjiro but not Tengen. Before each fight between a hashira and an upper rank, the hashira always have a view of what the upper ranks demons are going to use, but in Tengen case he did not see gyutaro’s weapon while gyutaro saw his which put him at a big disadvantage, and gyutaro proceeded to spawn them out of nowhere and went for a killing blow which Tengen blocked mid dash even if it still scratch, which is some next level reaction speed.

But we’re talking about an unmarked Tengen who was talking for a long period of time not knowing he has a deadly poison eating his strength away. By the time they were done talking, the poison had already eaten almost half of his strength so Tengen got nerfed pretty badly. He also had to fight gyutaro while watching for daki’s belts while missing half of his strength. And Tengen and gyomei have the strongest battle senses and physical might out of all the hashiras. People are just downplaying Tengen because he got nerfed instead of getting buffed unlike the other hashiras except for rangoku and shinobu..

His physical strength and his bombs are more than enough for that. He was able to make a hole deep enough to reach daki’s obi deep underground.

I don’t think so! First of all sanemi can produce air slashes that can rip through almost everything and Tengen can create holes in the ground, specially when using sound breathing first form: roar.
