It's not a fighting game, neither this, and even if it was, there's nothing saying I can't compare two games of different genres when they have something in common.

To point 4, I still don't get the aversion. Even if it WAS a fighting game, match ups already exist in all of them. Literally every competitive game has ever existed with a roster of characters has characters that match up better than others. It's part of how these games balance out. All this does is add another layer to how those match ups turn out.

And again, I'm talking about a 10% or 20% difference in damage. This isn't a monumental, match-deciding difference. It's really not a big deal.

Well... I should have seen this coming and I don't know why I didn't. Based on what I'm reading so far, are you saying its not a fighting game because the creator once said so or because you feel this way? Apparently the developer later called it a fightng game. Let's suppose he's was wrong this time and saying it was a competitive action game is the right thing. Again why would it be? What's the a rubric for a fighting game vs a competitive action game? 

Yes, every fighting game generally has characters that are better matched up against others. However, that's because of fighting styles. I can't think of a single one fighting game that specifically has increased or decreased damage against certain characters.
