And for me, a character who wins with skill and wits is more interesting than one who wins with power. Usually, anyway. I'd like to believe Nanoha is such a character.
It's also shown in the manga, where Chrono & co are wondering why Nanoha is using such excessive amount of magical power, since it'd be smart to save some for a final attack.
At the end it's shown that Fate has more magical power than Nanoha left.
And bam, what happens? Starlight fucking Breaker.

Definitely a case of "tell, don't show" there. They
say that Nanoha uses tactics, and that Fate's got a significant speed advantage. They
show Nanoha tanking whatever Fate throws at her to the point that tactics don't really matter, and that they both fly at roughly the same speed.
