I think Spacial Rend does big crit damage because it's supposed to be Palkia firing a wave that erases the space and everything occupying the space where the attack lands, thereby tearing away a chunk of the victim's body. Based on that interpretation, it's not the type of attack that does a lot of damage because it has a lot of "power", it's the type of attack that does a lot of damage because it aims at vital areas, it's just that in this case, everything is a vital area, because it's tearing a chunk of the target's body away, thereby causing severe bleeding, etc etc etc etc.
The reason it didn't surpass Cynthia's Draco Meteor isn't because it got cancelled out in terms of power, but rather because the condition for the attack's completion is that the wave must come into contact with something, before the space at the point of impact is torn away. It hit Draco Meteor, and warped it away.
tl;dr, I think Spacial Rend is more of a dangerous "technical" attack than a powerhouse move like Roar of Time and Draco Meteor.
Cynthia's Garchomp clashing with it doesn't mean as much as people are making it out to.
Which isn't me saying that it means nothing, because it does have implications about her strength.
