Sorry to disagree, but the GO isn't even close to as good. The Vastness flies, has strategic move of 10 -- which makes for one hell of a SC that can zip around the map as a fire brigade if needed, or to single-handedly chomp on enemy rear-area provinces -- and much better attacks (and more of them, too). Anyone who thinks the GO is even in the same league as the Vastness hasn't been using a Vastness to its full potential, even as a non-SC.
There's a very good reason why the Vastness is a rare summon, and limited in how many you can get.
