At face value, it's entirely possible the Hero is stronger, as a Daedric Prince, but it's also possible the DB is heavily connected to a god. It's not outside the realm of possibility that there's much more to their connection with Shezarr/Shor. As far as I know it's just theories and nothing concrete really sets anything any particular way, but it does sound like the DB has a decent chance of becoming something more due to how many dragon souls they gulp down. Soul stacking is one of the ways someone/people can become gods (if I remember correctly.) Which is tied into the fact that they exist as they do at all. Something very unique happened to make them dragonborn, specifically the last one. Part of a possible plan or a gear in the workings of the universe etc. It's theorised they may be a shard of Lorkhan (Shor).

I may be off with some of this, it's an intricate web.
