And Scott proved to be extremely powerful without becoming a Monster in the finale. The writers just made a mistake by letting Scott use his true alpha powers too soon. Now they don't know what to do with it. Just imagine how easily he would have kicked everyones ass in season 5 so far. It's a shame. They didn't really SOLVE anything, though..............they raised a lot of questions, teased Scott's transition to monster, talked about whether or not killing was justifiable, and then...........nothing. Seriously, nothing. Scott having a major power boost for a brief period doesn't really accomplish anything other than prove that he CAN be powerful without turning into some kind of sadistic freak who gets off on killing (which SHOULD have been obvious to him almost from the beginning, but Scott's kind of slow on the uptake, as we all know).

He didn't have some big revelation, some epiphany that changed his worldview and allowed him to tap into his power...........he just randomly took hold of it. By instinct, I suppose? Meh. Very confusing stuff. I think it's just bad writing. This show is depressing sometimes.
