\\\"Badass is an adjective used to describe a character who gets away with outright insane stunts (defusing a bomb with their teeth, conning a mob boss, getting into a firefight with the entire army, etc.) that would be VERY hard to pull off in real life, or would get the person trying it killed several times over. A Badass is a fantasy figure whom the audience roots for precisely because of how prone they are to awesome moments, to the point where they stretch or break the Willing Suspension of Disbelief.\\\"
Of course, magic is impossible to pull off in real life, but that\\\'s hardly what this means. It doesn\\\'t say anywhere that \\\"Anyone above SuperWeight class 1 is automatically badass.\\\" Twilight Sparkle only barely counts as BadassAdorable (if at all), Trixie certainly doesn\\\'t. I\\\'d like to see someone pull off being badass and MilesGloriosus at the same time. (The closest I can think of is CiaphasCain, and he fails at being MilesGloriosus.)
I \\\'\\\'can\\\'\\\' see the point of wanting to apply this trope, depending on emphasis it seems to fit, but it just doesn\\\'t hold up on closer examination. I might like to put it there too, depending on how annoyed I\\\'m feeling with Trixie at the moment, but I can\\\'t justify it.
(Also, I\\\'m not sure unicorns are more powerful than pegasi, or at least that they are much more so. Just look at Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle. But that\\\'s a whole other discussion.)
