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?

Obvious reason is Stephs possibly the goat playmaker. He’s a great scorer but his greatest impact on the court is his off ball playmaking. It’s more effective in raising his team mates shooting percentages than even jokics on ball playmaking.
