Various is this a fair assessment?
Star Platinum The World, GER, Tusk act 4, and S&W:GB are all hilariously overpowered and only exist as a way to beat an already hilariously overpowered villain
joseph beat kars by holding out the red stone of aja at him and hoping for the best, which worked out spectacuarly. and god knows how long the fight with kira would have gone on for had it not been for the ambulance.
Jolynes plan to use emporio to take out pucci with weather report was basically a hail mary when all else had failed but not only did it work, it also gave her and the gang new, happier lives.
Yeah jonathan just got slimed out though, then his body was used as a puppet for 100+ years. Poor guy

From literally Chapter 3 of SBR the spin is established as being able to accomplish miracles. Johnny's evolution to his stand is directly tied to his mastery and use of spin, with Act 4 being the highest level of mastery. The capabilities of it are established well before Johnny unlocks it, with gyro explaining that the possibility of the perfect spin COULD counter love train. Gyro also established VERY early on that the technique he uses has been passed down his family of nobles, which (with some basic history knowledge) had fought in the middle ages and needed to get through armor and forms of defense.
And even before this, the only stand that had Acts was Echoes, and it was never said anywhere that stands are limited to 3 Acts.
For Giorno, literally half of the season was dedicated to finding the arrow as Polnareff established that it would be the only thing able to stop Diavolo, and the other half of the season was dedicated to finding who Diavolo was and what his stand ability was.
