Why is the universal Survival arc a bad arc for you?

I can't rank entire original DB at this time since i still have to reread (or rewatch) it to have clear view. Haven't done it for a long time.
I can only rank King Piccolo at this time.

Tier 1 (Great) - Baby saga > Buu saga > King Piccolo saga > Shadow Dragons saga
Tier 2 (Good) - Saiyan saga > Black Star saga >= Frieza saga
Tier 3 (Mediocre) - Cell saga > BoG saga >= Super 17 saga > U6 saga
Tier 4 (Bad) - Garlic Jr saga > RoF saga > Black Goku saga > Tournament of Power saga

Note that for Black Goku and TOP i rated their awful anime versions.
Manga versions are better and maybe could even make it to Tier 3 at the very bottom.
Especially ToP saga unless it gets worse. For now it's ok.

That arc has aged poorly, in my opinion.

When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.
