Jeremy Greer's healing touch is better then Linderman's.	None	+ Jeremy was able to kill with his ability, Linderman wans't. - Their abilities might not be the same, Jeremy's ability was named before all of the effects of his ability could be documented. • It also depends on what you mean by 'better'. On the one hand, Jeremy could both give and take life. On the other hand, Linderman had had decades to perfect his ability. Jeremy Greer's power was more versatile, but it is unknown if it was actually superior.
The ability negatively affects those who use it.	None	+ Ishi was dying for an unknown reason, and Linderman may have been aging prematurely. - Nothing suggests the ability affects its used negatively. Linderman had his ability for years, and was never even hinted having any sort of health problem or debilitation. Nothing suggests he aged too fast either. - Ishi could be sick due to carrying the Catalyst, it could have adverse effects in hosting it for a long time. • Ishi could be sick due to any natural reason.
It's not possible to heal Tracy or someone else with freezing or water mimicry.	None	+ It's only possible to heal things if they live of have lived before, there is no life in water. - It may not be possible to heal Tracy when she is in water form, but when she is in human form (and alive), she can be healed. • Donald Essex was hurt with a chemical and dissolved. • The authors mentioned that the substance that water mimics become isn't actually water (that is, H2O). Thus, it might be some sort of bizarre organic life (like a giant amoeba).
