A wizard can also burn 2 slots per turn (shield, absorb elements, counterspell). Sorcerers don't burn slots any faster than wizards, but sorcery points are a powerful and extremely limited resource.  Having them does tend to make a Sorcerer extremly powerful in a 1 encounter day.  But versatility is a power in it's own right and Wizards still trounce the sorcerer there (more spells prepared and a better spell list = higher chance of having a spell that would be better than the sorcerer's fewer spells and metamagic options for a given scenario).</blockquote>
