Wokistan:
To summarize, I don't agree with the idea of equalizing powers or resistances afforded by some in verse power. I don't like equalization that much in general, but can at least accept it's existence (though maybe it should be optional like speed equal is?)
I am fine with letting different powers interact with one another, and general stuff like resistances to soul manip or being able to see inviable overrides verse specific "only X can Y" as is, but don't think they should be considered the same thing. If oen power system does X abilities and Y resistances while the other does A abilities and B resistances, I don't think those should mix even if the power systems are thematically similar or whatever, because end of the day the things power systems do are still unique abilities for the characters using it.
I think that Wokistan, Dragonmaster, my, and others points highlighted why @Cal's argument could be wrong too as his system enable powers and abilities mixing/equalized energy properties when SBA should only make energy interaction equalized which can give oppositions resistance/abilities that the characters have not on their profiles. In my view, no extra abilities/resistances should be lost from Verse Equalization and no abilities/resistances should be gained from it too.
There is this thread recently about Verse Equalization from it looks the conclusion rejected it which looks to be supporting my arguments.
Solutio
Since I talked to Cal, I wanted to present his idea. With it, there is no needed to changes the verse equalization
My proposal is that from Verse Equalization Power system's inherent abilities or resistance removal or additions in a match shouldn't happen:
So, the way to fix the text would be:

So, the way to fix the text would be:
- Similar supernatural aspects of verses get equalized in a reasonable fashion but no inherent abilities or resistance be obtained or removed from verse equalization.
- Equalization works highly on a case-by-case basis, so many relevant cases should be discussed in the versus thread itself. However, no inherent abilities or resistance be obtained or removed from a power system, verse equalization.
