This isn't about having a universally defining truth, it is about using the information for a standard position, I am aware of the inconsistancy of WH40K, but that doesn't stop us from finding the middle ground.

Ex. Bolters scale to Space Marines themselves, as a standard Space Marine can rip open tanks, crack ceramite with his fists, and break every bone in a normal human's body with an incredibly casual blow, with weapons, like Bolters are capable of reducing other large humanoids to a bloody mist. Concussion missiles can easily tear through barricades made to withstand concentrated fire from numerous tanks. Plasma weaponry fires superheated matter with heat akin to a solar flare. Lascannons are even more powerful than most plasma weaponry and are capable of vaporizing tanks.

Do you see? It is not about atomic compositions or deep scientific logic, we go by the feats that are presented to determine where they stand in stats.
