I mean higher-dimensional ability to an associated character can bypass NEP Type 2 because they still exist at a higher layer; it was literally a thing was to agree to affect them.
I recalled Kaltias made the argument that Conceptual Manipulation Type 2 could affect them; noted, I think it was before the definition of NEP Type 2 changed which before I vehemently disagreed with as the earlier definition make it sounds it was only applicable characters like Tier 0 characters but I guess there is a greater basis for the argument now; the original thread is
here.
I never recalled a thread about what I needed to affect Transdual character; given from what saw, I believe it was largely agreed that conceptual manipulation type 2 was enough.
