Sweet Ann is noted to be a "power" type.

Just sayin', also I think Big Al is one too. Yohioloid has power in his voice and would be a power type too, but the tone doesn't match the power type. >_<

I remember back in the V2 era, someone argued that "why would you want Sweet Ann when you can have the voice of... (insert the name of Miku's Provider, can never remember how to spell it)". Basically, people are seeing Gumi as the "all round" voice of V3, especially since most vocals are either too soft (Oliver, Avanna, Yohioloid) or have unappealing vocal accent issues like Miku. Unfortantley, "Clarity" is valued over all other traits in the overseas fandom, so Pop or rock types get more interest normally then ballard types. I know Sonika was the vocl everyone wanted in V2, but was a real let down. So another Sonika would get a lot further and a lot of the complaints amount to the issues of Clarity being taken as the most important trait of all. :-/
