It just seems very arbitrary where you choose to put the bar for what constitutes good depth
We have two potential 70+ point guys at center vs. 0,1 at wing,
we have 3,3 potential 40+ point guys at wing vs. two at center, and
we have 3,4 potential 20-25+ point guys at either wing vs. 5 at center.
Why do 40+ point guys count as better depth but 20+ and 70+ guys don't?

I don't know what you're talking about. If Daniel and Henrik go down, our team looks like;
Booth/Kesler/Burrows (All with a history of first line production)
Higgins/Schroeder/Hansen (wingers with a history of 2nd line production, centre with history of 2nd line AHL production)
Raymond/Lapierre/Kassian
Volpatti/Malhotra/Weise
It's still very clear that we are way better off on the wing, at least to me.
