Why? Its more story. While I think that the statistics are useful, I think that when you're dealing with armies and masses of magic, one should rely on story rather than the clatter of dice.

Then they cancel out. Your blue monkey neutralizes my red swizzlestick. Unless its considered astronomically powerful, at the large-battle-scale of things, most things are pretty much equal.

And
Its something from KODP that many players of HW like. Its not exactly something from 'offical' continuity. I fear that things don't get handed out on a platter all that often...
In my own opinion, its better to rely on your own judgement and write ones own grimoire. The Abiding Book, afterall, was only written once.

We have no idea.
