Or that by the time she gains that level of control, All Might will already be dead.
One Strip! One Strip!I am 100% certain her power won't be able to do that. Come up with whatever rationalization you want for it, but that actually would ruin all tension like so many people were screaming about.
Maybe she'll eventually fix up Izuku's arms, but I doubt even that'll happen.

Her quirk works on clothes too, apparently... (fixed Nemoto's outfit back to normal, yet left a pile of clothing behind when her father got erased from existence... a bit inconsistent.)
The definition of "living" is a bit skewed regarding her power from what have been shown so far...

"Hey you little traumatized seven year old, remember that time you accidentally deleted your dad from existence with your Quirk, the one which you cannot control and have no way of safely testing or training? Could you please use those powers on this old man here to make him healthy again?"
This was a dumb discussion fifty chapters ago, and is a dumb discussion now.
As they say fear is not rational..... well neither is stupidity either but hey what can you do?
Really my favorite thing about Eri's Quirk is the steps Overhaul took to turn it into a quirk-eraser bullet. Cause when I first saw her I assumed her powers were like Leech from X-Men, he has the power to negate mutant abilities so like in X-3 the government used his blood to synthesize a Mutant cure.
But no Eri's power isn't to negate abilities, instead Overhaul used science & research to manipulate her Rewind into only targeting Quirks. I really love that, the fact that science was used to change a Quirk into something more controlled, like imagine the years it took to perfect the serum. All the tests, all the possible failed versions that can do whatever, the test subjects used to verify that it actually works, etc.
Its great world-building, it adds to how the world is affected & reacts towards superpowers. The fact that science & their own knowledge of how Quirks work has advanced so much is absolutely fascinating.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."Makes me wonder about what happened to the test subjects for the flawed anti-quirk serum looked like before perfecting the formula...
[Research Log: AQ-12]
[Test Subject 302: Male 30. Failed. Deceased. Cause of death: Heart and blood completely gone]
[Test subject 303: Male 30 Failed. Deceased. Brain gone. Cranium completely intact before opening.]
[Test Subject 304: Male 30. Failed. Deceased. Only lower half of body remaining. Clean-up crew required to the scene.]
[Test Subject 305: Male 30. Failed. Stuck in vegetative state. Completely intact. Nerves still in place upon positive reflex tests. Hypothesis: The subject's soul got erased. Impossible to prove. Boss pleased by progress regarding physical aspect.]
[Test Subject 306: Female 30 & Male 8 months. Mixed results. Female completely unharmed (With exception of some hysterics). Male test subject however, completely gone. Quirk still present in Female. Boss not pleased. Clean-up crew to test chamber 2 required.]
[Test Subject 307: Male 32. Mutant. Failure/Success. Brain, spinal cord and eyeballs left behind on the floor. complete quirk removal from remains confirmed. Boss bemused and pleased with progress. Continue]
[Test Subject 308: Female 28. Mutant. Success. Mutant quirk genetics erased. Skinned subject (Lower half gone) still alive for five minutes before Boss exterminated it on the spot. (Note: Do not touch the boss. Not even his shoes...). Research ongoing...]
[Test Subject 309:...]
...
Imagine that horror show of research in progress...
The sheer amount of Fridge Horror truly is disturbing.
All the people Overhaul must have killed to perfect the serum.
That's the scary thing, because we don't know how the process went or even how long it took, we can only speculate all the possible casualties.
Plus all the money it must have taken. I wouldn't be surprised if the research must have left the Yakuza bankrupt.

Ooooh that is fun, do more.
Overhaul himself is generally seen as more of a foil for Shigaraki. Same goes with Deku for obvious reasons.
Oh boy have there been a lot of theories about this. I once made a joke theory about Eri materialising out of nowhere back in chapter 213 and resetting Deku's black whip but damn did it escalate quickly.
I'm just gonna say this though, even with Aizawa there, it still might not be safe to test Eri's quirk. I mean she literally just touched her dad once and he was a pile of clothes in about a second, there's no guarantees that he'll be able to erase her quirk in time before All Might evaporates.
And the only reason we saw her quirk working in a controlled manner was because Overhaul went through all that trouble to make the serum, she clearly can't control it using it by herself. Her healing All Might would kind of be bad for the plot too since it takes away a lot of the tension.
Imo All Might is either gonna get killed by Shigaraki's hands and we'd have Infinity War all over again, or UA just gets the news one day that All Might is going to die and everyone flips their respective shits. À la dramatic hospital scenes like Nighteye's.

Well, that’d be jus’ a waste. Why would ya want to deprive the world of such anomaly as yourself?Random Thought: What if All Might's gruesome death at the hands of a villain has nothing whatsoever to do with Shigaraki or All For One?
I could just imagine having apparently beaten fate only for All Might to involve himself in a crime like a mugging in the park and getting himself done in by that.
It's completely possibly since the one thing nobody can deny is All Might had a massive case of Chronic Hero Syndrome.
On the other hand, that'd be a lot like that late Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode where the Scooby Gang spends the whole episode protecting a girl who foresaw her own death; saving her from a cult sacrifice only for her to drop dead of a heart attack after everything was done.

It's not skewed, it's just for Horikoshi's convenience, i.e. it's more convenient for him if everyone's clothes aren't destroyed when she uses it.
The same thing is true for Shishikura; his Quirk explicitly only lets him mold flesh, and yet when he does it to other people, anything they're wearing (even something as big and gaudy as Bakugo's gauntlets) are perfectly fine when it's undone. It doesn't make sense, but it's how it is.
It's a typical thing in fiction, see One Piece where Devil Fruit powers and transformations include people's clothing even though they logically shouldn't.

I doubt she could even do that. Some of his organs are just gone. Maybe her power would make them pop back into existence, but I get why they wouldn't assume that.
Also, she has absolutely no control over it; she probably doesn't even know how to activate it at will.
