“Unless your father of bully is an invincible superman you can always defeat him. sure you may fail and you may be horribly hurt yourself but you still can try and succeed with pretty much high probability. You have enough time to make a good plan.”
This is something way easier said than done. One single fuck-up and you could be dead or worse. I’m not sure how you can expect a child to overpower an abusive father, especially if the father had people working with him. Which brings me to
“The real reason why victims lose against bullies is that the one whose life is worse less will always win. Bullies are bullies because their life is worth nothing they have nothing to lose.
while victims usually have too much to lose to take a risk of fighting.

As yes you can easily defeat your abusive father or mother or husband and maybe even get away with that because they will not even file a report to the police
But if you break your father's husband's arms he will be unable to work for a month or maybe forever and then who will be paying all your bills EEh?”
You’re basing this all on a one-on-one fight and acting like this is a stereotypical bully situation you see on TV when it could be far different. Not all bullies are those insecure bullies who only bully because their lives are worthless. Some bullies are genuine evil sociopaths with high connections. The bully could be a high ranking gang member where if you touch him his gang will kill you no matter what you do. The bully could be the kid of a rich family who could easily silence you and have bodyguards around him.
And your abusive father or husband can easily be so violent that if you did stand up against him he’d later kill you or have friends to kill you.
Your Jordan Peterson story is just a single anecdote and he lucked out that none of the other inmates were more insane and stronger than him or formed a gang that could’ve easily stamped him out. Although that Jordan Peterson story also helps prove my point. What if that small innocent-looking dude was your bully? If your only advice is to keep growing more insane and stronger than your bully then eventually you’re going to hit your limit. This isn’t an anime power level. Most abuse victims can’t just keep getting more “insane”. That’s not even going into how telling someone to “go insane” is already bad advice. Even if they do go insane they just ruined their chances to have a normal non-violent life. So that’s another way abuse victims are forced to suffer. Either they stay being abused or they’re forced to sink into becoming crazed and violent themselves to survive. You can see how most people don’t want to be the latter? This is entirely on the abuser’s fault. Abuse victims shouldn’t need to choose between being abused and becoming brutally violent. You admit yourself there are consequences so it’s not as simple. However, the entire point is that you shouldn’t HAVE to make such a choice. Imagine if I kidnapped you and forced you to choose between either killing yourself or killing a loved one (or if you don’t have a loved one, all your money and property). Now you can technically say you had a choice there but the whole point is the fact is that you shouldn’t have had to make that choice in the first place. The entirety of at least 99.99% of the blame is on me for putting you in that situation and not you because you “chose” to kill your loved ones/give your entire life’s possessions to me.
