It really irks the fuck out of me when folks keep on about Mild powers when I was talking about Human Level non-powered. You know, it really proves that they didn't actually read a fucking word I said.

If characters with magical powers can't offset the unbalance of one side having a firearm, how in the world would humans fare any better? They're countering your argument by offering even more advantages to the person without a gun, to explain how guns are a destabilising factor in tier balancing because they severely limit what sort of character can be entered into a tournament for example. 

And good luck arguing I have an agenda against firearms, because almost all my characters carry them.
