@PromptedElephant641 thanks for the input. From what l have seen the essential divinity is the only paraconsistent tier 0, what happens if there beings which do not fit such any kind of logical description or are absolutely ineffable like the overvoid, swirl of the root and dematteis god? Do they settle for type 2?

By definition all Tier 0s have PP Type-3; however, as stated, when indexing their abilities only that which has been demonstrated is presented on the profile which is why all Tier 0 power and abilities sections say the following:

• Omnipotence, Omnipresence & Omniscience.
  
  Specific applications include: ………

The PP Type-3 is granted already within the power of being an omnipotent Tier-0 being; any particular powers are then provided in the “specific applications include:” section

The Overvoid and Swirl of The Root are only granted in their “specific applications include:” section that which they have shown. In The Overvoid’s case, that is PP Type-1 and with The Swirl of The Root and DeMatteis depiction of God in DC, these two have demonstrated PP Type-3.

Many verses have outdated PP statistics based on older versions of the power; however, there is an on going revision thread that is taking care of these issues. In general, PP Type-3 (having 5 or more logic states) is very very hard to obtain and only a few characters in a few verses actually meet those qualifications. Of those few that do have the ability, most are just the bare minimum with 5 truth / logic states, there are only a handful of characters that have more than 5 with some even having infinite.

Coming to this can an ineffable being be PP Type-3?

True ineffability, such as through the ultimate interpretation of Negative Theology, is by definition Tier-0. As such, yes they would have PP Type-3; however, like with the other Tier 0s mentioned, it would only have the powers it has actually demonstrated as part of the “specific applications include:” section so unless it has a specific statement(s) showing evidence of PP Type-3, that would not be put on the profile.

Okay l see.
