** Hive designs an orbital insertion pod that passes 99 out of a hundred safety tests. But the range of things she tests for is far beyond real-world usage.
---> "The one failure was when the pod was intentionally fired into a supervolcano ready to erupt, triggering the eruption, with an 'unfolded'[[note]]ie destroying all dimensions in the manner of Flechette's power[[/note]] asteroid coming down behind it."

--> Not quite to the degree that Hive's systems, or even Dragon's, would go to, but still a surprise for anyone who triggered it.

** Taylor is forced to intervene unexpectedly on an alternate Earth after a parahuman sets up a whole arsenal of weapons of mass destruction to go off if he dies, as a precaution against assassination, then foolishly gets drunk and is killed by a bull, without anyone else being at fault.
---> Their rival had immediately gone into a panic because the infection was supposed to be a 'released ''somewhere'', then spread until suddenly people start falling over dead' type thing. Hive had spotted the whole thing a couple months ago, but the shard device kept tabs on the infectious agents and made it difficult to 'disarm' them ahead of time.

* ImprobableWeaponUser: Based on lessons learned from shards like Uber's, the kingdom's automatons can devise a combat style for any weapon. ''Any'' weapon.
--> '''Fate:''' To test them, I asked about options for improvising a weapon out of a child's sippy cup and got a surprisingly detailed training plan that included strategies for varying levels of 'filled' and different contained liquids.

[[spoiler:When the TSAB finally arrives and gets to try assembling their own "cutting tool" lightsabers, they have to agree that despite the cool factor, they're not actually likely to be a good choice in combat, being ineffective against magic and inferior to a simple shield for defence.]]

* HappinessInSlavery: Taylor is annoyed to realise that her attempt at writing laws left enough leeway that people are able to voluntarily become pets, servants, or even slaves. And she only realises because of people wanting to become ''her'' servants.
--> '''Taylor:''' There are only a handful of 'pet' and 'slave' requests in the queue and they haven't gotten very far, but apparently being a personal servant to the Queen is seen as a good thing among some groups.

Added DiffLines:

* InstantExpert: One of the few ways that parahuman powers work better than magic is that they're easier to start using immediately -- because the shards aren't bothered by altering someone's brain to make things instinctive. A parahuman might be able to start flying immediately with reasonable success, whereas a mage who wants to fly will first need to master an assortment of protective and life support spells for when they inevitably bury themselves in a cliff, launch into orbit, or splash down in the ocean. Even then, getting a handle on three-dimensional movement can take days or weeks of practice, and it just doesn't come naturally to some people at all, [[spoiler:such as Amy, who instead diverges into wall-running and strength-boosted jumps]].

* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: Many of the techniques learned by consuming shards are rated as just too dangerous to use. The shards themselves apparently didn't care much about the risks inherent in tearing someone apart into individual atoms and rebuilding them later, or constructing bombs that could tear holes in the dimensional fabric, but for those who care about the long-term stability and survival of the planet, lots of things are off limits.

* IThoughtEveryoneCouldDoThat: Taylor is an absolute monster when it comes to multi-tasking, on-the-fly spell editing, and magical combat in general -- but she doesn't realise that. It's only when Vista gains her device that Taylor gets some perspective on how far outside the norm she actually is. Even then, she assumes that a properly trained mage would trounce her, but Hive strongly doubts that, when Taylor can control hordes of Endbringer-grade drones from another dimension. Possibly a dimension that pure mana techniques can't easily access.
