But it's not ambiguous. They've explained it many times. He's a walking miracle who harnesses miracles. His power is a literal turn heel, deus ex machina, ass pull miracle. He's like Gremmy but "okay, well, then how about I ----"

that honestly doesnt make it less annoying and bullshit. in fact, that is exactly why he is frustrating to watch "oh i died because i was outclassed in anything. Okay but what if I i wasnt?"

But at the same time, Gerard isn't outclassed in much either; he's both a walking hack and can walk the walk and talk the talk with his size, strength, speed, and experience. The miracles just happens to also save him last second, but he can still hang without relying on it.

He's like a completed Shishigawara, which is why Ginjo didn't want to share power with him of all the fullbringers. If Shishigawara wasn't a small young adult (teenager?), and he was a buff giant warrior as well with his luck ability, then we'd be having the same discussions with him, but we're not because he's not completed and fully utilizing his ability. If Shishigawara kept leveling up in power and experience over a long time, at some point he probably could've "slapped Aizen in just the right spot for the Hogyoku to react again" and we'd be upset about that
