I get that, but I have to say I actually kind of prefer superhero campaigns that don't have the Super modifier. It feels like the very early Justice League story where Amazo the android copies Flash's speed, Green Lantern's power ring, Wonder Woman's lasso and Amazon battle training, Aquaman's aquatic powers, and J'onn J'onzz's Martian abilities, because they're all "super." Really, no, they aren't at all. I like different heroes having different power sources that give them different strengths and weaknesses and open up different power sets. And while I can see "Psionic" as being a category that can be interfered with by specific ultra-tech or abilities, I don't find it easy to think ot "Super" that way.
