You can't because you have nothing observable by which to judge.

If you can't define alpha weakness - then using a word that not in the dialogue to justify your belief won't work.

You can say he's not as strong as he should be - that's fair.

You can say he's not living up to his potential - that's fair.

You can say he's holding back - that's fair.

"Weak" places him at the bottom end of a scale - Weak to Strong - without defining the scale.

That's like giving him a "1" on a scale of 1-10 when you have no idea what constitutes a 1 or a 10.

If we had some valid comparison then we could detail the spectrum - as it stands we don't so you can't place Scott anywhere within the weak to strong continuum with any certainty. I think that bit about "what was said on the show" has been covered.
