Do your homework in this field before making such claims......
Who cares?
I'm sure Kia could make a 500hp 5.0L if they wanted to.

What matters is: on-the-market
Dodge has a 425hp 6.2L, Chevy has a 423hp 6.2L, and now Ford will have a 500hp 5.0L

Which is plenty fair if you ask me...How many years have Ford owners been cursed by the dreaded....v6 Mustang?
Honda 3.0L - 240hp
Nissan 3.5L - 300hp
Chevy 3.8L - 300hp
Ford 4.0L - 210hp

*sigh*
