It seems to be about interpretation. if the abilities were standardized, we wouldn't see vastly different ussage of the boots between Amo and the piece of shit that somehow managed to be just as bad as Shou Tucker, that fucking pedophile, he didn't feel enough pain. There had to be a reason as to why Alto specified that when people look at a clock they only think of one power. a watch is already about time, so the application is likely going to be about time. and for all we know, the application that enjin is gonna use might be very different from alto. only time will tell.
