Are cordless routers powerful enough for real woodworking?

Mainstream tech press and specialist subreddit threads broadly agree that modern brushless cordless trim routers (DeWalt DCW600B, Milwaukee M18 Fuel, Makita XTR01Z, Bosch 18V Colt) have enough power for edge profiling, round-overs, dadoes, hinge mortising, and most 1/4-inch-shank work. They are not a replacement for a 2+ HP plunge router for slab flattening or heavy 1/2-inch bits.
