Default Quick Question: Sorcery as Psi, Chi, etc? Limited Scope?

Hey, all. Quick question.

Sorcerous Empowerment is pretty flexible, able to simulate anything that could be a spell. Well, what if you want to use Sorcerous Empowerment alongside Psionic Empowerment or Chi Empowerment? Psionic powers are a little bit more limited. Would you make that Limited Scope, Psi, -10% and call it a day? What about Chinese Elemental Powers? Between internal and external powers, Chinese Elemental Powers are still rather limited in what they can do. Is that still -10% or maybe -20%?

Now, if I were just using Psionic Empowerment or whatever, I'd leave the cost as is and call it a setting feature, but these very flexible Sorcerers exist alongside slightly more limited Psis, etc. So, I figure they should get a little bit of a discount.

Another thing that I have considered it making Sorcerous Empowerment's base Modular Abilities 5 base + 5/point into 5 base + 4/point for Psi and Chi.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks so much.
