Then all you have is a piss weak u-turn and superpower.

Excadrill is nowhere near broken without Sand Rush. It is far too slow to do anything in OU.
Manaphy's CM set would be outclassed by Keldeo and the Tail Glow set fails to defeat Jellicent or Blissey and would be prone to being revenge killed easily.
You can't ignore certain factors about a Pokemon to make them seem more tame. That is not the point of this discussion. We are looking at both Tornadus-T and Keldeo, including every aspect of their potential.
