Sorcerer supreme is a much better choice than Aegon anyway.... Aegon is great for a few pieces of content and that’s it. Sorcerer Supreme is great for a lot.
That is the most inaccurate thing I have read all day

Maybe so, but given a choice between R3 Sorc and R3 Aegon, I would probably choose Sorc. For the most part, the increase in attack and damage for Aegon would only help him incrementally, but I think they would help SS more. Most things benefit proportionately from increases to damage and health, that's obvious. But anything that heals benefits more than proportionately from increases to health. So SS would in my opinion benefit more from the R2 to R3 rank up than Aegon would.
In fact Aegon has a slight counter-proportional benefit to increased attack, and that is it lowers his ramp up. So I suspect increasing Aegon's damage by say 15% wouldn't increase his overall kill speed by 15%, but a slightly lower number.
Why do healers benefit disproportionately from higher base health? The short answer is that if you want to kill something with healing, your damage output must first overcome the healing, and then the rest can actually lower the target's health bar. The higher base health is, the higher that healing, and the more damage you need just to keep pace. If something doesn't have healing, no matter how high you increase base health all that does is make the fight longer. But if that something has healing, at some point the healing is higher than your damage, and you cannot kill it at all (setting aside heal block and heal reverse for now). This highlights without getting into the weeds with math the way in which healing is a "non-proportional" damage mitigation effect. It doesn't make fights X% longer like, say, resistances would.

but aegon is better though
Overall yes but what is the point if you have no content to use him for?

Yes I understand where than viewpoint is established but I think many contradictory summoners are coming from the stance of having all current permanent content completed

I have them both. I use SS more often. Better is for spreadsheets. Useful is for rosters.
