You would think the sense-of-scale issue in Gundam would relate to the mobile suits, but no, for the most part those are relatively grounded. Where they fuck up, though?
Colony drops.
Indirectly, the most famous one: because Zeon kills 90% of humanity (not just with that drop of course), and then, after they lose the war where they did that, any of them survive. They would all be killed. Every single man, woman, and child in Side 3 would be radioactive ash; the Feddies would be very sure to make that happen. I’m not saying that would be a good thing, but it would be an inevitable one.
And then directly, in Gundam X, when they drop a whole Side worth of O’Neill cylinders on Earth, leaving giant craters everywhere. Two things: the Chicxulub impact left one itsy-bitsy crater you have to look really carefully to see; and that one itsy-bitsy impact was enough all by itself to kill 70% of life on Earth.
Enough orbital drops to visibly change the landscape like in the show, and we’re talking levels of destruction somewhere between “not even your Demon will live to creep, blackened, from its hole to mar the reflection of our passage” and “those who truly understand know I have no right to let them live”.

not sure if you’ve noticed these but it looks like tiergan has two more antennae next to the other two that go behind his head? what are they for
what an astute observation and excellent question! you see, those are his straight-dar, except he's sick and tired of everyone's (sophitz's) drama so he secures them back to cut off the sense so he doesn't have to deal with it anymore!
I've created a very helpful visual!
i hope that helps!

Mike johnson has so god damn much blood on his hands, obviously Ukrainian blood, but also plenty of American blood
Refusing to renew something that helps vets exposed to atomic blast and Americans who were downwind of the fall out... it's just sick. I can't fucking stand mike johnson, he's one of the worst scum to ever be in congress, and that's fucking saying something
"Johnson refused to allow House members to vote on bipartisan legislation to renew and improve the program"
Fucking quivering little pimple seems to have a real MO for just wringing his hands while insisting it's not his fault, he just can't do the one fucking part of his job of putting shit up to a vote... oh boo hoo, so sad, he'll just have to unilaterally let funding expire on things instead of literally just putting it up to our elected representatives to see if they want to vote yay or nay
Single handedly make the choices but it's not his fault when they work out how they do
Murderer

Come to think of it, shouldn’t Vandal Savage be dark skinned? He’s 50,000 years old. Nobody had light skin yet, not even Neanderthals.

THEIR FACES.
Hob Gadling trying to fall in love again because that's what he does, but his heart is still with his beautiful stranger in a pub in London even though its been twenty THIRTY years since he was stood up and he's TRYING, he's really trying to move on! And he loves this woman — this woman who will look on him in the light of day and lie in bed with him even when they're sad and whom he will see in the morning — not a night one hundred years hence. A woman who has never stood him up, not even once. And he knows her name. He tries — no, he does — he loves because that's what Hob does; he loves and loves and loves. But no matter how much love fills his heart, it never drowns the ardour for his quiet, eternal stranger.
So. I've made liberal use of this in Dreamling videos, so it seems right to share the whole thing.
