Hitting the genetic lottery ticket doesnt invalidate his strength.

Hashirama is the only non-Otsutsuki to be that strong in the series without body-mods and without chakra from a creature like the tailed beasts.

His strength comes from the genetics and skill. Not by borrowing or stealing his abilities from other people or characters.
