I know exactly how the methodology works and fully understand that recent years are weighted higher. The fact is though, that by using three years of data, it only generally predicts the best team but fails for exceptional teams that have had dramatic changes in the last 1 or 2 years (e.g. City). This is why Liverpool is still rated above us. Over time this will correct itself but right now the system does NOT predict City's current form. This is simply not debatable.
Comparing the number of points a team has in their group with a team in another group does not make logical sense. They are in different groups and some groups are more competitive than others. For instance I don't believe any team in Group L is currently sitting in the top 3 of any of the big four leagues in Europe. Group A by contrast does in fact have a team in that position.
I never said Porto wasn't the best team in the comp. I was simply suggesting that the "facts" you use for your argument are flimsy at best.
