For one, game mechanics would have to be seperated from any actual lore surrounding him. Tongues can wield an incredible amount of power, as evidenced by individuals such as Wulfharth, but there is little way to be sure how far the Dragonborn has actually progressed. The Dragonborn's Thu'um is said to be on par with Alduin's. Either way, they're definitely more powerful than the average Tongue's or Dragon's, considering that they actually absorb more power canonically many times.
