Default service ceiling of F-22

I have seen descriptions of the F-22 having a service ceiling of 50,000 feet
which is 13,000 less than I have seen for the F-15. I thought the F-22 was
much more advanced.in every way except perhaps top speed. How can the F-22
be the air supieriority fighter of the future when its predessor can fly 2
miles higher?

What gives? Am I wrong?
