The only problem is that as of now, we don't know if there's a set power level beyond which GER wouldn't work. Like, you could say the strongest being ever came by and blinked Giorno out of existence and I could say that GER would just reset that to zero. As of now, GER has no rules on how it works. People say it can remove the effect from a cause but that makes no sense whatsoever as you would have to eliminate the cause to stop the effect from happening meaning you're effectively removing both which sounds closer to what is actually shown. To keep it simple, it's like trying to attack Cain in Vampire the Masquerade: you can't because any attack that lands on him will bounce back on you with seven times the strength and there's no in universe way to defeat him. The only way you can defeat these kinds of characters is to just make up a more op character that ignores whatever the other character had going for themselves "just cause". That's the problem with omnipotence, you can't quantify it and as such, you can create an endless cycle of "this guy beats this guy" without needing to explain why logically. That's precisely how The World Over Heaven beat GER, there's no logical explanation on how it happens, it just does because it has to and beyond even that we have Speedwagon. So, is GER invincible? Who knows. Is there a way to beat him? Yes. Is there any contorted logical reasoning as to how and why? No. But in the immortal words of our fandom's greatest spokesman, Todd Howard: It Just Works.
