They said "Not yet, but soon" for Marcoh. And didn't even brought up Mustang if I remember correctly.

Al is better than Ed intellectually, you should know that
Mustang's not better than Al, of that I'm sure.

Mister, they took away Marcoh just because they were lacking in personel and didn't want a potential sacrifice to run around. That's how precious he was to them.

I don't think that talent has anything to do with how little you lose in the gate. For me, it's more a state of spirit than anything else. Talent is measured by the result of the human transmutation, and on that account, Jude from the Blind Alchemist is clearly the best alchemist ever : the thing he created had a functionnal body, even if the transmutation was still a failure.
