I disagree. I am entirely in favor of leaving some elements of a setting unquantified if the point of the story isn't for the PCs to set upon them with claw and fang. The answer to the question "What can this deity do?" is "Whatever the GM wants or needs at a given time."

Precisely. The apple doesn't have powers of its own and so giving it stats (beyond, possibly, weight and size) is pointless. Heh. Pointless.
