And frankly the nature of the question is beyond able to be answerd with any sense of satisfaction. You are talking about "gods" and other "god-like" beings. All of which have every reason to keep thier origins a secret from everyone. You will never know who is really who. For all we know the Princes could in fact be the Divines playing around with humanity. Maybe all of the higher beings are in fact just different faces of Lorkahn. The reality is, whoever survives gets to write the history books. So just because someone wrote it down doesn't make it fact. The only things one can take as actual fact is what they have actually seen and been invovled with in game. And even then, nothing is truly set in stone see the Dragon Break for examples of that. I guess Mr. Avellone is actually at Obsidian not Bethesda but you get the point. Doesn't matter if you like the answer or not, fact is this person has a point. Its not the easy answer friend, its the real world working answer. No one knows who is the most powerful god in the universe, because we don't even know who is and isn't a god. It was done that way on purpose allowing for storyline flexability. Its called, "making a workable back plot". A back plot isn't meant to get figured out, its a running theme that influences and drives the story. I know most of you are gamers and get all bent out of shape when your forced out of the game world and back to reality, however, many times I see questions posted on here that have very real world answers to them. Sorry but its not always about lore, which is something that can be changed in a moments notice at the behest of producers.
