Mine have certainly never had the fierce initial bite of the MT7 (or any Magura 4-Piston caliper with the independent 4-Pack pads) so I’m not discounting personal preference.
But, before you write off the TRPs I’d also suggest swapping out for different rotors and trying to burn in pads/rotors again. A lot of the time when I try brakes that I know should have more power than they do it’s actually the rotors that are glazed over. It happened to me with some new Codes this year and a rough sand of the pads and rotor swapped had them working impressively. (I did end up cleaning the rotors but it was the best test).
