I mean, you could also just say that you have Flight [40] and Wildcard Power Pool 40 [80], and then slap modifiers onto the Wildcard Power Pool, but that felt less legal to me. Though, I suppose, if I wanted to go even simpler, that works too.

Less legal, sure, but in this situation you are more accurately making a new advantage that happens to line up close to MA enough to follow most its rules. But it
isn't one because its actually a non-leveled advantage broken into a leveled one (For instance, you could make Voice a leveled trait by cutting the cost and effects in half so each level is a +1). One really nice thing about building it this way is you don't have to worry about adding Physical or Social to it, and unlike real MA, you only have to spend 1 turn to switch abilities, not 2.

I don't think that's an issue. In fact, I dislike how MA isn't priced to include everything and has limitations to bring it down to certain categories instead.
