Exactly! ATR explicitly “allows you the luxury of extensive planning...” and also “experience level+1 subjective seconds for each real second that passes”. With just a few levels of ATR, you can see individual movie frames, and at 23 levels, it would be one fps. ETS seems to imply that its speedup is infinite, but the benefit extends only to negating rushing penalties for mental tasks in non-combat situations, not giving bonuses for taking extra time.

Except where there is overlap, like non-combat situations. Powers and Supers have no sections for ETS. Which other books do?
