I already explained the Tailed Beast bomb. It's superior in power. It's also not a great jutsu to spam in an environment you don't want to level. Spamming Biju Bombs in konoha would level konoha faster than it would your opponent. Rasenshuriken is a less powerful but more reliable jutsu. And as i already explained, reliability is far more powerful than raw power.

I once played a game where i built a death-star like construct equipped with the most powerful guns, shields, engines whatever most powerful the game had to offer. I sent a fleet to my far inferior enemy. It got obliterated. Completely and utterly obliterated. A quick analysis showed that my weapons of awesome destruction were also horribly inaccurate. They would instagib enemy starships but would miss most of the time.

I once played a tower defence game where my most powerful tower had insane damage, range and medium firerate. I spammed it and lost. I built mediocre towers and i won. Why? The tower instagibbed enemies, but only attacked one enemy. Every shot was wasting over 60% of it's damage.

Again and again and again: reliability is far more powerful than raw power. Rasenshuriken has little drawbacks and great strengths. Why do you think we have more and more accurate bombs? because throwing one bomb right is much more useful than carpetbombing. Reliably hitting your target is far more powerful than just making your explosion big enough that you can't miss.
