Otherwise, we are just back again to fights being straightforward and exempt of subtle course of actions, the likes which Zero really shouldn't have in contrast to SN.
Hell, if you question Saber's state, then we should all question why Gil didn't win the war yet, by the very same logic.
That's exactly my point. If you want to create a ridiculously powerful character, deal with the consequences of doing such a thing instead of creating silly excuses in order to nerf him.

And Gilgamesh already stated he does not care that much for the war, didn't he? Another excuse but at least not a "I'm the most powerful servant ever...oh wait, someone just nerfed me again. Now I'm going to be useless for half of the series" one.
