But yeah, it definitely could be weaponized. Hence my suggestion this time around to use time constraints and/or an Accessibility to effectively eliminate combat value. Also,
my idea built on Snatcher because I
specifically didn't want it to be targeted (although ask for something specifically enough and of course it would be targeted, especially if it goes for the closest thing, which is what I hadn't thought of).
I'd build this ability based on Warp as thieving is inherently targeted. But some of the ideas from the above thread might be very easily applicable to Warp (limitations and such).
