You can rationalise the whole 'better than' thing by remembering that "better than" has to be for a purpouse.

Word is better than LaTex for quickly knocking up a letter.
LaTex is better than Word for producing properly formatted large documents.

I am better than my friend Ed at maths.

But I'm not better than anyone in a general sense, because the phrase doesn't make any sense.
