I'm just going to throw this out there; calling something a god does not mean it is all-powerful. "(god) (In certain other religions) a superhuman being or spirit worshipped as having power over nature or human fortunes; a deity:" - Which means that even if he is classified as such, he can still exist in the high tier without going past it. 

Here's the bumper, if his increased power levels (which could theoretically happen if he lost his bracelets) aren't specified, they don't exist.

Also, we get to brag about killing gods.

Edit: In short, there's a difference between being a god, and being god-tiered.
