Not really, ive read a lot of power bottom characters who are men in power. Even for this author's work symrna and capri has shown that.
However there are toooo many pretty boys who are bottoms in bls which feels sort of heternormative so its great that shuraka is a top because pretty tops deserved to be seen and it breaks that whole ass pretty feminine bottom and handsome masculine top stereotype which is 90% of bls

Ahhh how I would have loved for the Padishah to be the bottom
