I don't think they did much to answer this, only create more speculation. Did Krillin get a massive boost, or was Goku using like 1% of blue's potential? Also lol at having a fight with blue on the table on top of Satan's tower. I liked how they painted Krillin to be more about tactics and tricks rather than brute force though. I think that's the best way they could set him and some of the weaker fighters up. We got another great owned Krillin moment when he decided to antagonize Gohan at least.
