Like I get that thematically those maybe shouldn't be the answers, but who cares? Mechanically it seems pretty clear to me.
The point isn't specific examples, per se. The point is that the game is not designed to care. I can (and have, in similar arguments) come up with perfectly reasonable powers that greatly call into question who is inflicting the wound, or if any figure is at all. It's just not something inherent in the ruleset, and there are already multiple examples where it is either unclear (Wannok, Knockback) or is inflicted by multiple figures (Marro Plague, Zombie Onslaught).
Alright, I remain completely unconvinced there's actually an issue (the Ogre Pulverizer sure seems to think the game cares at least), but I also don't really care how heroscape's 'gibberish pretending to be a ruleset' works anymore Good to know it's a no go for future powers.
