I am reffering to way battles are written. I am there is no progress in feats, there is no something s stronger oppponent can do that weaker one can't(not counting planet destruction etc) i am talking only about battles. So the difference in power is not well preseneted, all we see is straight horizontal lines depicting super speed, but guess what, Piccolo Daimao Could do the same, Raditz also, Freeza, Majin Buu etc. Even the UI fells like "stopping" time. The is no something that indicates difference in powers or abilities.( with the exeption of final form Freezat least in the beginning his ki blasts could not be seen) Another example, when a charcter powers up the ground trembles Shouldnt that be gradual? If in the Saiyan arc the whole planet trembles what shound happen in later arc?

After Freeza Arc, there was no longer any interest in making anyone stronger. AT should've found other ways of continuing the story. For example, Androids could be equal or slightly weaker than SSJs and still be dangerous because of their infinite stamina.

I wouldn’t call it bad writing but it puts limitations on the fights. Bad writing is when you have messy power chains like you see in the Boo Saga.

Tbf the reason for the horizontal lines is probably so us the viewer/reader can keep track of the fights. It's obvious that they are moving incredibly fast due to how long Namek's 5 minute destruction time was dragged out. Although there are inconsistencies with travel speed and destructive power such as Goku taking months to make it across Snake Way. Or 21st Roshi blowing up the moon despite being wayy weaker than Daimao who was only city level.
