I suppose that both of you meant to have a {roda zo'u} prenex,
but remember that the default quantifier for {da} is {su'o}, so
what you said is in both cases quite trivially true: Michael says
that there is someone as big as their god, very likely to be true,
but nowhere near as interesting a claim as it would be if it were
made about everyone. Tsali completes the phrase saying that
there is someone for whom being as big as their god is
equivalent to being a god, again nowhere near as interesting
as it would be to say that it is true for everyone.
