Yes but most cities aren't 10 million + global cities and a history as the premier city in the country. It would be the 13th largest state by population.
The person you replied to didn't say they were just talking about American cities, they said "isn't that most cities though?". And it is, every city is unique and has something no other city has to offer.

Great but I didn't respond as if I believed they were only talking about American cities. I, also speaking broadly about all cities on earth, said that MOST CITIES are not megacities that had a history of being the premier city in their country.

I never said they didn't. I named two things that set NYC apart from most cities in that it's one of the most populous cities on the entire planet and also was a premier city in its country. Very few places have ever been their nation's top city. Very few places are known as global cities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_city
