The Armed with Canon incidents involved DC combining Invulnerability with Deadly Dodging, and the new system with Marvel annexing cards that give each character multiple powers as their backstory demands.
Also, the powers and point values didn't always line up with canon. well, limitations of the system was that heroes who exhibited several superpowers at the same time (like say Super Strength and Incapacitate, or Invulnerability and Regeneration) could not use both at once, because only one attack, movement, defense, and damage power could be activated at once.
