So what I"m seeing here (and confirming my suspicions by looking through the books), is that I shouldn't even bother. It would be like comparing D&D editions with WFRP or something, since the rules in 4e make it very much different from previous D&D editions, that there is no real way to do an analysis? Every other edition I can plot out "here is how a fighter gains in these categories compared to an equivalent monstrous opponent", but I can't really do that in 4e based on how the AEDU system/healing surges/power system works? 3e was challenging I will admit, when you start factoring in things like feats. But I'm lost when how to approach 4e. If you're saying it's not really possible to do it fairly, then I appreciate that for saving me a lot of time
