Why is Steph almost unanimously considered better than KD right now? (alien.top)

On every ranking and tier list Steph is put above KD. Why is that? Here are their stats since the start of last season

KD: 29.6/6.8/5.1 on 67.2% TS

Steph: 29.5/5.8/5.8 on 66.1% TS

KD has been playing just as well as Steph (arguably better) but he doesn’t ever rated higher. Why?

Two things: (1) Curry's intangibles are superior, and (2) Curry has a presumption of superiority after 2022. Curry sonned a Celtics team that held KD to one of the worst playoff series a prime top-15 guy has ever had.
