Morphology
incomparability = incomparable (semi-transparent) = in + compare + able + ity
For the evaluative sense, 'incomparable' often means 'exceptionally excellent' rather than literally 'not able to be compared', so the derivation to the noun retains that evaluative nuance.
Etymology
Incomparability comes from the parts in- 'not' and compare 'to look at two things together'. So it means 'not able to be compared', and is often used for something so much better than the rest that it feels 'beyond comparison'.
