Ok so apparently you made two more messages as I was sending mine so I'll respond to those too.

"the actions are meaningless because you don't have control over then, you act blindly inside the time skip and diavolo have free control to react to then"

Except in KC's first appearance, his first appearance, he uses it to evade an attack that's already hit him. You can't predict and dodge an attack that's already hit you. It's already landed.

And about the whole The World vs KC deal, yes, time stop is stronger than time "erasure," and it's certainly fair to call it the strongest ability. However, Ratt, an objectively weaker stand, cornered a stand with time stop plus some. Additionally, KC has two abilities, the more significant one in this fight being Epitaph. He can see himself die very suddenly and unexplainably in the future, and activate KC. During erased time, the time stop user stops time as he is fated to. Naturally, during time stop "seconds," KC doesn't end because no time is passing. They do exactly what they would have done during time stop, failing to hit KC's user because he is invulnerable (from using KC), but even if he wasn't invulnerable, KC's user still has the chance to move to a different location before the time stop so that the time stop user blindly attacks the wrong area. So, while time stop could very well be considered a stronger ability, KC, just like Ratt, counters it and more than likely wins the fight.
