How was the PS1 more powerful than the N64, despite being only a 32 bit system?

This isn’t a “which console is da best” thread, but more in terms of specs. You have companies like Square moving over to the PS1 for that extra disc space vs cartridges, as well as many companies looking to make a “realistic” game. Yet the N64 is 64 bit, rather than 32 bit. Shouldn’t it be more powerful? A Famicom Disc System game is still more primitive than a Super NES game, after all.
