Does any of this have to do with the quality of the song?

No.

Wide Awake has better everything than TOTGA .

Better lyrics (such as the bridge):

(I'm wide awake)
Thunder rumbling
Castles crumbling
(I'm wide awake)
I am trying to hold on
(I'm wide awake)
God knows that I tried
Seeing the bright side
(I'm wide awake)
I'm not blind anymore

vs

The o-o-o-o-one
The o-o-o-o-one
The o-o-o-o-one
The one that got away

All this money can't buy me a time machine, (Nooooo)
Can't replace you with a million rings, (Nooooo)
I should've told you what you meant to me, (whoa)
'Cause now I pay the price

Better acclaim:

Grammy Nomination

The One That Got Away doesn't even have a page

Better success: (do I even need to)

Better Production:

It's a shame that the rest of ATRL doesn't agree with me

I meant the Oscars

[Aurora]

The fact that you can't clock a subjective opinion on which song is better with chart positions and award nominations.

Mess. Grammys aren't even The Academy, are they?

[Dylobs]

One of the only things that TOTGA has over ACADEMY Awake is performances tbh.

[Dark Horse]

the fact that people base their opinions on a song by what other critics say about it and its success rather than having a truly individual opinion

[Dylobs]

at this though

Wide Awake 5 plays
The One That Got Away 19 Plays

A shame that the songs in the top 5 of Teenage Dream are beneath Part Of Me though

[Dylobs]

Even if I didn't see the success/acclaim it had, Wide Awake is still better than TOTGA. The production, the lyrics, the meaning, the significance to Katy

Poor Widely Forgotten!

The One That Still Gets Plays > Widely Forgotten

"the fact that people base their opinions on a song by what other critics say about it and its [radio play] rather than having a truly individual opinion "

[Aurora]

The #1 That Still Slays > Wide Open-Casket Wake

Roar is her best lead, her adlibs. It's also the best shes looked in a video since ''Teenage Dream''.

[Dark Horse]

[Aurora]

California Gurls > Roar > I Kissed a Girl > Part of Me

[Dark Horse]
