What should we doooooooo?
Well, from a quick look at this, that'd depend on whether we consider Telekinesis feats to be combat-applicable ones (I ask because I distinctly recall seeing multiple dissenting opinions on that matter, and as of now, I don't have much of a solid precedent for this sort of feat), and how we interpret a few things in-story. For reference, here's what I'm talking about:

Had he always known it would come to this? No, in the days before Thamiel, the good days, none of them would ever have imagined hurting another angel. Now things were different. Everything had grown horrible. In a way, this was the worst. Aside from the goodness of God, the one constant was that Uriel would be irrelevant, always off in the corner staring into space working on some weird problem. Now Uriel’s very irrelevancy had been twisted into some kind of horrible, evil version of itself.
But one welcome truth had not changed: Uriel was weak. Very, very weak. Less skilled in combat even than Raphael. It was time to end this.
“Gabriel,” said Uriel. “I am channeling the divine light. Do you know what that means? It means I control it. All of it. Go away, Gabriel. Don’t make me hurt you.”
Uriel? Hurt anybody? Gabriel lunged forward, and…
So, as the last tidbit says, Gabriel doesn't just acknowledge that Uriel is weaker than the other Archangels, but that he
cannot picture Uriel hurting any of them to begin with. You could take this quote in a few ways: Either he is saying Uriel is so weak that he genuinely can't do any harm to the other Archangels, or Uriel is too much of a weak-willed wimp to
bring himself to hurt anyone.
The first paragraph seems to suggest the latter, from a glance, but it should be noted that this whole exchange happened after Gabriel found out about Uriel's plans to reestructure the universe and turn all supernatural beings into metaphors (Which, as we see a bit later on in the same chapter, is something Gabriel sees as being just death), so that interpretation seems a bit strange, and the first is thus a potentially valid one. If we take it as such, then the other Archangels would scale to Uriel's Telekinesis, given Gabriel actually saw him lifting up that mountain moments earlier and was neither impressed nor convinced against his idea that Uriel couldn't hurt him in combat.
And of course, that's if we even treat Telekinesis feats as Combat Applicable. If the answer is "No," then the whole thing above is null.
I'm neutral on that matter, personally, so, I'd like to see your thoughts.
