No. An important thing to note is that they do different things. Quetz functions as an AOE buster with star absorb, and Astraea functions as a ST arts with both star absorb AND instant star gain.

Personally I think Astraea outclasses all of the other 4* rulers simply on the fact that she can NP spam with crits to boot. In the most ideal situation, she can pop all 3 skills onto herself, get stars on her cards, and let it rip with an Arts Brave Chain that'll give her entire gauge back because of her great hitcount and NP gain. Not only that, but because her NP gives her back 20 stars, she can theoretically do it again and cycle those stars into the next turn's pool. No other Ruler aside from Qin Shi Huang is capable of doing a cycle like this, as everyone else is either Buster-based like Amakusa or Martha and requires additional turns to recharge, or are more utility based like Jeanne or Sherlock without an NP steroid.
