Is Jean Grey an Omega level mutant due to the phoenix force?

If she had no ties to the phoenix force would she still have enough power to reach Omega level status?

Absolutely. Jean Grey is literally more powerful than she can even manage.

When she was a child, she was so strong that she Professor Xavier had to retard her abilities. Her telepathy was completely turned off, and her telekinesis was ramped down to allow her to grow. The strength was reintroduced to her as she grew.

At her maximum potential, her raw power is basically unmatched. She has the strength to pull objects out of orbit and the finesse to manipulate objects at a subatomic level. Telepathically, she can cut off individual senses, communicate with animals, project astrally, and kill with her mind.

She wasn't so powerful because she became the Phoenix, she was so powerful THAT she became the Phoenix.
